Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-
Compiz does not start when the resolution is above 2048 in either direction. This behavior has changed in a recent patch where the area above 2048 would not be drawn correctly (and there is a fix for that too).
Affected version:
xserver-
compiz output:

This works for me with the patch 103 re-enabled in mesa. However it appears from bug #146859 and bug #359392 that this patch has side effects for some other chips.
I have re-enabled the patch 103 in the latest package from proposed in my PPA: https:/ /launchpad. net/~ferrix/ +archive/ ppa
