The patch isn't correct, but I'm pretty sure the equivalent problem is still present in RHEL7. After some digging, it looks like this is the same issue as: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7555 Which was fixed upstream in the xserver 1.2 branch. Therefore I believe this issue is resolved in all RHEL6 and RHEL7 X servers. |
Created attachment 321692 [details] Patch to fix the redraw problem Description of problem: Running QT or GTK apps results in fonts, icons and other details either failing to draw or rendering with incorrect colours. Running Xdmx with -norender fixes the problem, but it is very slow and an unacceptable solution. How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start xinit on client nodes 2. startx `which gnome-session` -- Xdmx :1 -display host1:0 -display host2:0 +xinerama 3. Many aspects of the windows fail to render. Firefox has problems too. Happens with KDE and the same apps run under twm. Additional info: I have included a patch which can be applied to the SRPM and fixes the problem.
