Description Albert Flügel 2023-07-21 15:58:19 UTC
gnome-shell should show a toolbar on top and a window list at the bottom with black background. What i actually see can be seen in the attached screen photo (i used a camera, cause trying to obtain a screenshot made Xorg crash, (see bug 2222057).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start computer
2. Logon to Gnome on Xorg (wayland crashes almost immediately)
3. wait until the desktop appears
Actual Results:  
kind of checkered artifacts on the bars on top and at the bottom, see attached screen photo

Expected Results:  
gnome shell looks normally and does not crash
VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS880 [Radeon HD 4250]

The cause seems to be in the same area like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2222057 , that is assigned to mesa now.
When i downgrade these mesa libs to the shown version the phenomenon is gone:
mesa-dri-drivers-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libEGL-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libgbm-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libGL-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libglapi-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libOpenCL-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libOpenCL-devel-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
mesa-libOSMesa-22.2.2-1.fc37.x86_64.rpm
i did not research, which is the last version without the issue.
