I also get artifacts, though less severe, with .31-rc2 on my Toshiba Satellite A40 (32-bit kernel) during logout from X.Org. The switch is clean with .30. > Hopefully I can reproduce it on my box locally, otherwise its really > messy dealing with 2 drivers smashing on the same hw. Not sure why you're saying that. I would think VESA fb + X.Org is quite common and also a very valid use case [1]. How else would you get the pretty kernel boot logo? ;-) > btw you get any wierd text mode issues without vesafb? If I boot .31-rc2 without vga=791 I don't get the artifacts. The artifacts also do not appear if I boot with 'nopat'. Checked on both systems. Note that I reported a similar issue once before, also reproducible on both systems. In that case it was a bug in PAT which was eventually fixed. See: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10843. Given that 'nopat' helps, you may want to check with Suresh on this one. Cheers, FJP [1] I'd even go so far as to feel it should be a standard test case for video driver developers, given that this is the third time it's shown regressions :-) For the third case the bug was in the X.Org i830 driver: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14481. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-testers" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
