Description A. Bleasby 2015-04-22 16:42:05 UTC
Description of problem: Severe diagonal tearing of the display when using
Fedora 22 beta on an Asus W2JC laptop (ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 RV530/M56-P).

The open source 'radeon' driver is being used.The cursor appears normal, only the desktop itself is corrupt. The torn display reacts to mouse events
producing similarly corrupted and unreadable drop down menus.

Removing wayland by disabling it in /etc/gdm/custom.conf results in
a normal, uncorrupt X11 display.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome shell 3.16.1-1.fc22.i686

How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Fedora 22 beta into the default login screen
2.
3.

Actual results:
Corrupted display

Expected results:
Uncorrupted display.
