Since the 3 patches were added: i965: Use MESA_FORMAT_B8G8R8X8_SRGB for RGB visuals i965: Add B8G8R8X8_SRGB to the alpha format override i965: Add MESA_FORMAT_B8G8R8X8_SRGB to brw_format_for_mesa_format Kwin no longer starts correctly on my Skylake system with FW5.17 & Plasma 5.5 I can still see the console and the mouse renders and I can see a popup telling me the wifi has connected. If I disable compositing I can logon, but opening the compositor settings the control panel segfaults in i965_drv.so Going back to the previous commit before these patches solves the issue for me Please let me know if you'd like any more details or logs
Just to be clear I only need to revert 839793680f99b8387bee9489733d5071c10f3ace

I've sent a revert for the patch because it looks like it's not going to be trivial to fix properly and this bug is worse than the original bug it was fixing. http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/68408/
I've pushed the revert. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=61cdb7665f7bd147533cdc5
