2010-03-01 04:06:19 Rocko affects nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) xorg (Ubuntu)
2010-03-01 04:16:59 Rocko description When I use nvidia-settings to change screen resolution in Lucid, grey lines (perhaps two pixels wide) appear around the border of the X window. For instance, with left and right monitors configured, this means I get grey lines around all but the right edge of the left monitor and all but the left edge of the right monitor. The lines appear as soon as the resolution change takes place (while nvidia-settings is asking you to confirm the change) and persist if you cancel the change and return to the previous mode. The lines also appear if you have two monitors configured, physically remove one, choose 'Detect Displays' and apply the changes with no change in resolution for the default monitor. Restarting the X session is required to remove the lines. Note that the same nvidia drivers (195.36.03) do not exhibit this behaviour in Karmic with the 2.6.33, 2.6.32, or 2.6.31 kernels so it seems to be an X/nvidia issue. ProblemType: Bug Architecture: amd64 CheckboxSubmission: 1bd8e90541d49b96c13cbfcc9baf103b CheckboxSystem: d00f84de8a555815fa1c4660280da308 Date: Sun Feb 28 09:49:38 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Alpha amd64 (20100224.1) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: nvidia-current 195.36.03-0ubuntu1 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_AU.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nvidia-graphics-drivers Uname: Linux 2.6.33-generic x86_64 In certain situations, grey lines appear around the X desktop window and do not disappear until X is restarted. The easiest way to reproduce this is to select a file on the desktop and press F2 to rename it - the lines appear instantly. Other ways to reproduce it include changing screen resolution and video modes (see below). This happens both in a VirtualBox VM running Lucid (I can see it in both full-screen and windowed mode) and on my main laptop. On the laptop, it happens whether I use the nvidia or the nouveau driver. Other information about causing it with mode changes with nvidia-settings are: When I use nvidia-settings to change screen resolution in Lucid, grey lines (perhaps two pixels wide) appear around the border of the X window. For instance, with left and right monitors configured, this means I get grey lines around all but the right edge of the left monitor and all but the left edge of the right monitor.
