Created attachment 479932 [details] Screenshot of gnome-system-monitor with black colour of memory history Description of problem: For a fully updated F15 system equipped with an ATI Radeon X800, desktop windows spontaneously exhibit colour corruption, e.g. in the case of the attached screenshot of the GNOME system monitor (the colour of "memory history" should be purple instead of black) or in the case of vte3 for which the console text colour spontaneously becomes black, too. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-drv-ati-6.14.0-2.20110204gita27b5dbd9.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Frequently. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start GNOME session. 2. Launch applications like gnome-system-monitor. Actual results: Certain colours are replaced by colour "black". Expected results: Colours do not change unless modified by the user. Additional info: Issue was absent from F14.

This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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 to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Still observed for current F17.
