Graphics corruption after waking from suspend

th_corrupted-graphics.png

The image above shows what it looks like. The good news is that there's a process that restores it back to normal: I go to display settings and rotate the view then choose to restore previous setting when asked. Then i restart gnome-shell and everything is clean again.

The problem shows up consistently after suspend and sometimes when booting.

Any advice here is appreciated.

If you are using the nvidia binary driver replace it with nouveau. Gnome 3 doesn't support nvidia binary drivers at all.

I am running a radeon x300 with the drivers xf86-video-ati 6.14.1-1 and ati-dri 7.10.2-2.

That thread seems limited to nvidia cards and mine is ati. The downgrade of gnome-power-management suggested there did not work for me and I could not find the org.gnome.power-manager.lock-suspend option in gconf-editor.

Please note that I had posted a similar problem last year which I solved by downgrading to older drivers but gnome3 does not work with these.
