[SOLVED] Bad rendering of the tabs - Gnome 3.6

After the upgrade to Gnome Shell 3.6.2 from 3.4 I'm experiencing bad rendering of the tabs. There is quite much aliasing as shown in the screenshot:

look at it at full size, as I see on my screen.

You can also notice that also the conky-lua get drown not so beautifully as I was used to.

On my second pc nothing of this is happening and everything is rendered very sharply.. any idea?

Thanks

I'm experiencing the same, since a day or two. Don't know what happened.

I'm also experiencing this.

Every line drawn by cairo now seems to be without any anti-aliasing, not only in the gtk tabs.

Edit: I'm using xf86-video-intel 2.20.13-1 (current)

Don't you guys think mentioning which graphic card you have would be important info to have? There's a bug in the intel driver affecting gen4/5 cards. It's already fixed in git.

Good to know. I will test it here.

Presumably bug, fixed in git commit.

Re: [SOLVED] Bad rendering of the tabs - Gnome 3.6

I'm using the Intel driver for my Intel HD3000 integrated into the I5 processor. The strange thing is that my second notebook has the same (I upgraded both yesterday) but on an I3 processor and all is drown very sharply.

However I'll try the new driver version and let you know if it solves wink

Thank you!

Yep, that's the thing. I don't have a problem on my netbook (gen3 graphics), but I did on my desktop (gen5). Then I saw that commit and compiled the driver from git, and all is well again. This is with the Clearlooks theme on gtk2, it uses rounded corners everywhere, so the bug pretty much totally screws it up. An alternative to compiling from git is switching to UXA.

I'm using xf86-video-intel-git now and the problem is gone. Seems to be a bug in the driver, indeed.
