I've just tested latest version 1.2.1 from Xorg. There are still the same problems with KDE but there is some improvement since GTK apps are working again (with 1.2.0 they crashed imediately with a message indicating missing font or color). Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

I'd like to add my vote to this issue. I've just had to replace F9 with Xubuntu as the graphics performance on my NM2380 was too poor. I didn't see the same level of issues as mentioned above, but similar. 1) The hw cursor no longer worked and appeard as a corrupt square. Setting the SWCursor option resolved the issue, but this wasn't required on previous Fedora releases and isn't required on the Ubuntu Xorg 7.3 install from Hardy 2) Graphics acceleration seemed to be turned off even though Xaa was reported as being enabled in the xorg log file. Scrolling down a webpage resulted in really bad clipping. Scrolling the same page under a hardy installation shows nice smooth scrolling. One more thing I forgot to include 3) In the Gnome-terminal, the console fonts looked terrible and where obviously not AA. Changing font settings had no effect. (In reply to comment #6) > resolved the issue, but this wasn't required on previous Fedora releases and > isn't required on the Ubuntu Xorg 7.3 install from Hardy Yes, *ubuntu has the same older Xorg version as F8 had. So comparison with Hardy has no meaning here. > 2) Graphics acceleration seemed to be turned off even though Xaa was reported > as being enabled in the xorg log file. Scrolling down a webpage resulted in really bad clipping. Can we get output of this command? glxinfo |egrep -i '(dir|dri)' please? Thank you. [wk@sekwoja ~]$ glxinfo |egrep -i '(dir|dri)' direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect [wk@sekwoja ~]$ Sorry, that WAS correct. It seems that the recent update of xorg-x11-server cured the problem. Now the graphic on my Thinkpad 600X is working fine again, even in 24 bit color depth. I use version 1.4.99.902-3.20080612 of xorg-x11-serverxorg-x11-server. The bug can be closed, if noone opposes. Thanks for letting us know. |
