Xorg.0.log

When using nouveau on Fedora 15 (though it's never worked afaict) I'm seeing display corruption which manifests itself as the window borders being rendered incorrectly under xmonad (which is the most noticeable instance.)

I've uploaded a photo to http://www.flickr.com/photos/__kyle/5593144823/lightbox/ on the left, you can see xmag which draws the border correctly (black for inactive, blue for active) and the "actual" results on-screen.

I'll upload the dmesg and Xorg.log.0 as attachments.

regards, Kyle

Nouveau isn't actually doing any rendering on your card, due to no firmware being installed (we can't ship it, http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/NVC0_Firmware).

Reassigning to pixman.

I believe this should be fixed in xorg-x11-server 1.10.1-13 and later in F15.  Please test and reopen if not.
