is it sufficient to update f16 noveau driver to latest f17 as in koij??
Created attachment 534062 [details] tonight screen shot after latest updates, I get this on my screen...some improvements on the icons on the left, characters in right menu are horrible
this bug for me is a duplicate of: 745202 746826 When an updated driver will be pushed out??
Created attachment 536655 [details] another terrible shot No improvement on the subject
installed kernel-3.1.4-1.fc16.i686.PAE No improvement since my filing this bug, and no triaging apparently
Looks like 745202: it seems like lots of people report corruption in Shell with FX 5xxx era hardware. Sorry about triaging slowing down lately, mcepl and I both have other duties now and don't have a lot of time for X triaging any more :( -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 745202 ***
