Product: Fedora Version: 11 Component: xorg-x11 Patrick Grieshaber <sysspoof@xxxxxxxxxx> has asked for fedora_requires_release_note: Bug 527120: xorg-x11-server-Xorg shows graphical problems - after starting X https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=527120 ------- Additional Comments from Patrick Grieshaber <sysspoof@xxxxxxxxxx> Description of problem: After starting the Xorg server, the whole gui interface shows a lot of 3mm long lines in green (and sometimes orange). It is def a graphical fault. The little lines are everywhere - on the gnome menu, wallpaper, other windows (I mean the lines didn't only appear on gtk/qt windows or so...) The problem is, that xorg did not crash so there is no log file which helps the devs. I've appended Xorg.0.log (but with a working xorg!). The problem appeared after an update (yum update). Here's the list of the last yum updates (unfortunately I wasn't able to find the buggy package): ...
