xhc · 2012-11-15 23:00:14

juggz · 2012-11-17 03:19:05

Every time I have an issue like this I get really happy that it's not only me, and I don't have to find some crazy way to describe the problem lol.

Anyhow, yeah, having the same issue here...
Xfce 4.10
Chrome 25.0.1323.1 dev
Nvidia driver ver 304.64

smakked · 2012-11-17 07:07:21

just updated to nvidia 310 driver and issue is gone now

xhc · 2012-11-17 10:40:13

cards geforce 7 series and earler cant upgrade nvidia drivers to 310xx ... so issue still exists

duolon · 2012-11-17 14:57:06

confirm, this bug affects me.

smakked · 2012-11-17 19:42:07

I was wrong it has comeback this morning but not as bad ? Still an xorg issue by the looks

wlmeng11 · 2012-11-20 02:12:45

I was also having this problem.
chromium 23.0.1271.64-1
nvidia drivers 310.19-2
xfwm4 4.10.0-2

Downgrading these packages and rebooting fixed the problem.
pixman (0.28.0-1 => 0.26.2-1)
cairo (1.12.8-2 => 1.12.6-2)
xorg-server (1.13.0-4 => 1.13.0-3)

chuchuqa · 2012-11-23 13:42:34

has anyone filed a bug report?

Is it a chromium or pixman problem?

anonymous_user · 2012-11-23 15:00:29

Well here's the bug report for pixman:

I also reported the bug upstream for Chromium, but this is a xorg-server issue.

Same issue here, along with the others. Just assumed something wonky was happening with nvidia binary + 3 monitors (multiple monitors seems to always cause the best problems) For once i'm not alone.

lagagnon · 2012-11-24 17:10:53

Up to date Arch system here Nov 24th and problem still persists. Awaiting updates to pixman, cairo, xorg I guess....

Meyithi · 2012-11-24 17:12:53

According to https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi … che-patch/ - the guy responsible for the pixman patch is a nvidia guy - yell in there if you want faster action.

ernetas · 2012-12-02 10:21:47

It's one month and still no action?

I would downgrade, but an older version of xf86-input-evdev causes problems with touchpad.

Hooray! Looks like we've got acknowledgment: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topi … h/#3717024

hgabreu · 2012-12-04 00:27:56

Isn't that guy that acknowledge just another user?
The moderator, applatner, says he still can't reproduce it.

anonymous_user · 2012-12-04 01:52:22

Well there are two problems: a crash and corruption. applatner said he reproduced the latter and he has a fix.

t0m5k1 · 2012-12-09 13:56:05

I had the corruption/transparency issue using:
Chromium 23.0.1271.95 (169798)
Nvidia 310.19
Xorg 1.13.0-4

resolved it by downgrading Xorg to 1.13.0-3

really hope this is resolved soon & that the backport the fix to nvidia 304

Grima · 2012-12-09 16:44:36

Earlier today, I updated my computer, and now the problem seems to be solved!

The packages that got updated was:

[2012-12-09 14:59] upgraded harfbuzz (0.9.7-1 -> 0.9.9-1)
[2012-12-09 14:59] upgraded pango (1.32.3-1 -> 1.32.4-1)
[2012-12-09 14:59] upgraded xorg-server-common (1.13.0-4 -> 1.13.0.902-2)
[2012-12-09 14:59] upgraded xorg-server (1.13.0-4 -> 1.13.0.902-2)

eyemonen · 2012-12-09 19:03:09

Yes, I can confirm Grima's discovery: upgrading xorg packages (1.13.0.902-2) seems to solve the problem.

chuchuqa · 2012-12-10 06:45:21

confirm! Last update solved the problem

Manifold · 2012-12-11 09:28:38

It's not a perfect fix yet, I think. The change in xorg-server was just to "disable glyph caching again - fixes nvidia blob and vmware systems."

seletskiy · 2013-05-30 08:42:23

Is this issue still here (using latest xorg-server and pixman)?

I'm still experience grayish tab title text in chromium under gma500_gfx driver.

rhester72 · 2013-05-30 14:31:45

I'm still seeing it, running xorg-server 1.14.1-1
