[solved] updated, now I have crazy artifacting

Hey all.

I just ran an update and now i have CRAZY artifacting in most desktop applications. like all sorts of blocky popping. I do not enjoy it.

I am running an AMD GPU.
2 screens both via DP.

Anyone else having this?

Re: [solved] updated, now I have crazy artifacting

Downgrading all mesa-related packages to 21.0.2-1 has eliminated the graphical artifacts, so this appears to be mesa related.

cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg && sudo pacman -U *mesa*21.0.2-1*

Yes hexdsl,  I can verify the same issue started getting artifacts after the last mesa upgrade I can confirm that downgrading to mesa-21.0.2
did fix the issue.  I can also confirm there are reports in other sections of the forum and on other forums of people having similar issues.

I looked around for a place to submit a bug report but I have been unable to locate an appropriate place to do so if you come acorss one
please let me know.

Re: [solved] updated, now I have crazy artifacting

It seems this update effected the 5600 to me, as I had the same issue.
mesa-git in the AUR fixed this issue for me, and haven't seen other cards get effected.

For those that don't realise it :

There are already bug reports in archlinux bug tracker and mesa issue tracker .
See post #6 for links to them.
