[SOLVED] Display issues after power loss

I'm not sure what to call this thing (tearing?). It appears in some of my apps only.

Chromium and Thunar seems to be fine.
But Sublime and Ristretto are all broken.

At first I thought it has something to do with gtk, but then I found that some qt apps have this problem as well.

Re: [SOLVED] Display issues after power loss

Which video card/drivers are you using?
If you're on intel system (where this kind of screen corruption seems to be quite common), try switching AccelMethod from SNA to either UXA or glamor: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … SNA_issues
