Description:
Version 2.7.0-1 of the package has display corruption issues on (at least) the X4500 GPU. The issue is that the kernel side of things is missing functionality, and requires a patch http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/anholt/drm-intel.git;a=commit;h=f544847fbaf099278343f875987a983f2b913134 to set things right. This patch is posted on the freedesktop.org bugtracker. I'm building a kernel right now and will report back to confirm this fixes the bug. Additional info: This bug on the arch forum: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=70209 This bug on the freedesktop.org bugtracker: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21246 |
This task depends upon
built 2.6.29.1-4 including the above patch. Tiling works again!
