Created attachment 931473 [details] Corrupt mouse cursor photot Description of problem: I peformed a fresh install of Fedora 20 KDE X86_64. After a system update and reboot the system exhbited corupted graphics under the cursor (a rectangular reigon) and the cursor itself appears to have been squashed vertically by half. Booting back into the original kernel from my fresh install and the system reverts back to the intended behaviour. This bug appears related to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79809 reported against Wayland/weston, which I am not using. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Installed kernels: kernel-3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64 (Works) kernel-3.15.7-200.fc20.x86_64 (Fails) kernel-3.15.10-200.fc20.x86_64 (Fails) xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.2.0-3.20131101git3b38701.fc20.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-1.14.4-11.fc20 xorg-x11-server-utils-7.7-6.fc20.x86_64 How reproducible: Everytime I boot into kernel 3.15.7 or 3.15.10 Additional info: Hardware: AMD A6-6310 APU with AMD Radeon R4 Graphics

Mine have slightly different hardware, but a better description and also a photo. Also note that screenshot captures uncorruptedness (hence need an outside camera). I use gnome classic, and did not boot the earliest since install so cannot confirm/deny it being a regression.

But I also found that this piece of info is bogus - kernel-3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64 does not load the drm module nor the radeon module, so I guess it is just operating in generic vesa mode. kernel-3.15.10-201.fc20.x86_64 and kernel-3.16.2-200.fc20.x86_64 loads drm and radeon and shows a corrupted cursor. You can look at lsmod and 'dmesg| grep drm' to see.

Actually that's relevant - I arrived at it differently. I mentioned my mouse cursor problem at the video suspend/resume bug at kernel bugzilla and one of the responders says that I needed a more up-to-date xf86-modesetting (which is mentioned in the wayland/weston bug where the bug fix was committed to) for the cursor problem: Indeed, grabbing some rpm's from koji for the upcoming f21 and rebuilding them fixes this problem for me: # diff rpm-pre-fix rpm-post-fix | grep -E '(<|>)' < xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.2.0-3.20131101git3b38701.fc20.x86_64 > xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.4.0-3.fc20.x86_64 < xorg-x11-drv-modesetting-0.8.0-2.fc20.x86_64 > xorg-x11-drv-modesetting-0.9.0-2.fc20.x86_64 < xorg-x11-glamor-0.5.1-3.20140115gitfb4d046c.fc20.x86_64 < xorg-x11-glamor-devel-0.5.1-3.20140115gitfb4d046c.fc20.x86_64 > xorg-x11-glamor-0.6.0-3.20140419gita4fbc77.fc20.x86_64 > xorg-x11-glamor-devel-0.6.0-3.20140419gita4fbc77.fc20.x86_64 (note you cannot just grab the binary f21 rpms, as the server versions between f20 and f21 are differnt and abi not binary-compatible) I am also updating the ati driver/glamor to try to get X-video to work (not yet, it looks like I need newer mesa/llvm also), but I believe a newer xorg-x11-drv-modesetting alone may be sufficient to fix this.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
