Description Ivan Stojmirov 2009-05-01 08:09:31 UTC 
Created attachment 342055 [details]
Screenshot of the described problem

Description of problem:

This usually happens after resuming from suspend, but I was not able to reproduce it every time.
When I open a jpg file in gthumb or play a flash video in firefox the whole screen gets distorted and horizontal lines appear all across the screen. When I close the tab with the video, the lines disappear. Rebooting fixes the problem, until the next suspend.

I was not able to notice any errors in dmesg, messages, Xorg.0.log etc.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Fedora 11 with latest updates, running on Lenovo X200 with Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics.

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)

2.6.29.1-111.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Fri Apr 24 10:42:21 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-2.fc11.i586
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.1-6.fc11.i586


How reproducible:

This usually happens after resuming from suspend, but I was not able to reproduce it every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put the laptop to suspend
2. Resume from suspend
3. Open a flash video in firefox
  
Actual results:

The video displayed in a normal fashion.

Expected results:

Screen distorted, the video and the whole screen rendered unusable.

Additional info:

Same here. Fedora 11 with latest update, on Dell E6400 (X4500HD graphics card).
Comment 2 Ivan Pesin 2009-05-01 21:00:34 UTC 
Confirm same problem - F11 with all updates on hp6710b. Actually it seems that problem appeared after last xorg-x11-drv-intel update. Before that everything worked ok.

Same here.  Even just opening emacs causes the screen corruption.  Currently using:

I can confirm. Only happens after resume from suspend. Have KMS enabled. Results in random distortion of glyphs in firefox. Flash videos and eye of gnome perform as described above. Screen distortion from videos and eye of gnome stay on screen until redraw of gui components. Will post Xorg.

Comment 19 Manny 2009-05-05 02:12:10 UTC 
Although the previous screenshot(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=342401) was garbled, the actual display was not corrupted at time of screenshot. Some sort of corruption occurs during the transfer of data from the screen to the png file. The distortion is consistent with the described problem above.
Comment 20 Thorsten Leemhuis 2009-05-05 13:44:58 UTC 
Not completely sure yet, but after running 2.6.29.2-126.fc11.x86_64 (which afaics should be in todays rawhide) for a while and suspending two times it seems the problem is gone

Ivan can you still reproduce it with 2.6.29.2-126.fc11.x86_64, please?
Comment 23 MartinG 2009-05-05 21:18:38 UTC 
I can reproduce this on 2.6.29.2-126.fc11.x86_64 from koji, rest of system is fully updated Fedora Rawhide. This is what I did:
Rebooted into the new kernel, logged in. 

- Started emacs, got no corruption. Closed emacs.
- Did a suspend/resume cycle.
- Started emacs, got screen corruption.

I do not use a xorg.conf.
# cat /proc/cmdline
ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/lv_root rhgb quiet selinux=0 vga=0x318

xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.7.0-2.fc11.x86_64
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.6.1-6.fc11.x86_64

See attached Xorg.0.log. 

(Note these lines:
FreeType: couldn't find encoding 'iso8859-13' for '/usr/share/fonts/cjkuni/ukai.ttc'
Not user they have anything to do with the corruption though)

Comment 25 Kristian Høgsberg 2009-05-08 13:43:39 UTC 
This kernel build should fix the corruption, please give it a try:

Comment 26 MartinG 2009-05-08 15:15:02 UTC 
Just did a quick test here, with kernel-2.6.29.2-132.fc11.x86_64.rpm from the koji link above. Good news - the bug seems to be fixed! Thanks!

I was wrong there -- it still happened, for some reasons it just happened not that often. But with 2.6.29.2-132.fc11.x86_64 it seems gone for real now (at least until now).
Comment 29 Manny 2009-05-13 00:15:13 UTC 
Thus far problem is not reproducible since upgrading to 2.6.29.2-132 over several suspend/resume cycles. Seems not to be related to the glyph problem as I had stated earlier.
Comment 30 Matěj Cepl 2009-05-14 09:09:36 UTC 
Wonderful! Thanks for letting us know. Feel free to reopen with the additional information if it happens again.
