Description Reartes Guillermo 2011-03-10 16:41:59 UTC
Description of problem:

Using KRandRTray to rotate display on a amd radeon hd5670 (1002:68d8).

The rotation action itself does not fail. however, when hitting ESC to
cancel the timeout and return to the normal unrotated state, the display
becomes 'broken'. Resolution: 1920x1200.
Only a small fraction (30%) of the display is now usable (the upper part
becomes black and unusable)

Switching back and forth to a vt does not fix it
In konsole, (for those parts that are still accesible), commands can
be issued, but the command line echo is not displayed.

So either init 3 or ctr-alt-backspace must be used.
Menu-> leave-logout does not work.
 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-ati.x86_64   6.14.0-2.20110204gita27b5dbd9.fc15 

How reproducible:
allways

Steps to Reproduce:
1. execute KRandRTray
2. rotate to something, it does rotate ok.
3. cancel the timeout, to return to the normal [un]rotation
  
Actual results:
must ctrl+alt+backspace to return to normality

Expected results:
No issues.

Comment 10 Reartes Guillermo 2011-03-21 23:09:52 UTC
The rotation issue seems to be related to KDE Desktop Effects, at least with
composite renderer set to OpenGL (id did not reproduce it whit XRender).

SHIFT+ALT+F12 (Disable Desktop Effects) solves the half-black-screen-corruption
when returning from rotation. (DE can be re-enabled with the same key-combo.)

Comment 11 Reartes Guillermo 2011-03-25 00:00:17 UTC
Installed F15 in a spare machine and reproduced it.
My guess is that it is either xorg or kde.

00:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation C51G [GeForce 6100] [10de:0242] (rev a2)

Also SHIF+ALT+F12 (Disable Desktop Effects) solves the half-black-screen-corruption.
It is worse with OpenGL renderer, but XRender renderer has minor issues also.

Comment 12 Reartes Guillermo 2011-05-08 15:44:46 UTC
The issue still exists. It happens sometimes and sometimes not.
SHIFT+ALT+F12 (Disable Desktop Effects) restores the screen if needed.

Comment 14 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:28:23 UTC
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Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained.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:
