Description Martin Kho 2011-07-25 13:42:34 UTC
Description of problem:
After the latest Mesa's update, icons, help dialogs etc in KDE have wrong colours, e.g. the blue Fedora start icon is now brown. See attached screenshots (good_colours and wrong_colours). Desktop effects are enabled.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mesa-7.11-0.16.20110709.0.fc15

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in into KDE
2. Enable - if not already done so - desktop effects
3. Look at the Fedora start icon (on the left bottom side).
  
Actual results:
When desktop effects are enabled resp. disabled colours are different.

Expected results:
When desktop effects are enabled resp. disabled colours are the same

Xorg.0.log.old

Xorg.0.org.old is added because for now I've downgraded mesa.

Comment 5 Colin J Thomson 2011-07-25 16:50:37 UTC
Confirmed here also F15/KDE-4.6.5. Rolling back mesa and all is well again.

Comment 6 Iain Arnell 2011-07-26 03:34:02 UTC
Same here. Also running f15/kde and using nouveau driver with NVIDIA NV4b chipset. 7.11-0.16.20110709.0.fc15 produces bad colors with desktop effects enabled; rolling back to 7.11-0.9.20110509.0.fc15 is okay.

Seems like related to nouveau driver ... reassigning to Ben Skeggs.

Comment 9 Ben Skeggs 2011-07-29 00:54:28 UTC
And with this snapshot? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=256099

Comment 10 Iain Arnell 2011-07-29 06:51:02 UTC
No change here with mesa-7.11-0.17.20110729.0.fc15. Colors still get swapped.

Comment 11 Martin Kho 2011-07-29 09:17:59 UTC
Hi,

Can this issue be related to this fix?

* Tue Jun 21 2011 Dave Airlie <airlied> 7.11-0.14.20110621.0 - update to latest mesa 7.11 with nvfx g-s fix.

Comment 12 Andrew 2011-07-31 07:58:52 UTC
Have same issue.

It should be noticed that the current issue is not global. For example, such areas experience problems:
- kde system menu and tray (icons and plasmoids), "shutdown" plasmoid
- kde aplications menu
- konsole commandline

and such are not:
- python and gtk apps
- kde application toolbars and working area
- kde desktop plasmoids

Some other info, if it is useful: I have a second machine with exactly same SW but quite different HW (intel video, not nvidia). Current issue doesn't appear there.

Comment 16 Ben Skeggs 2011-08-01 23:34:40 UTC
Another mesa build to try, this one *definitely* has the patch I was thinking of.  Not sure if the previous one did...

mesa-7.11-0.18.20110730.0.fc15 seems to be working fine for me - colors are back to normal again. Thanks.

Comment 18 Martin Kho 2011-08-02 07:19:20 UTC
Hi Ben,

You did it again! :-) Everything is fine now.

Thanks for your great work.
