[Milan Plzik (emempi)]

Looks like this font issue can be triggered (at least for me) by http://wiki.clutter-project.org/wiki/File:COGLBasicsExample.zip , so the problem might be clutter/cogl-related. Also, relationship with 'font glitches' from https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29139 is possible.

[Marek Olšák (maraeo)]

It looks like only the very thin characters misrender.

Unfortunately, I don't have RS600.

[Milan Plzik (emempi)]

(In reply to comment #7)
> It looks like only the very thin characters misrender.

  I'm not sure whether this is width-related; I see misrenderd also 'S', 'v', '2', and some others, and I believe (but unfortunately I don't have a screenshot) that under some circumstances, the set of affected glyphs changes.

>
> Unfortunately, I don't have RS600.

  If it will be of some use, I can test patches, do some basic debugging, or provide remote access to RS600 machine.

R300 texture alignment partial fix

As Marek stated, this issue is related to texture alignment. After playing with mesa/src/gallium/drivers/r300/r300_texture_desc.c (see attached patch), I was able to get things rendering properly -- font issue disappeared with setting 'height' alignment of 8bpp textures to '2' and misrendered artifacts on some round edges with 32bpp textures and 'height' alignment to 2. Patch contains only values I needed to fix -- I guess there is some relation between parts of array I've been modifying.

Unfortunately, this patch causes, that some (random) of GNOME 3's popup windows are being rendered improperly -- their content looks like portions of other textures (e.g. desktop background, icons, ...; random parts of vram), with no apparent relation to expected content.

[Alexdeucher (alexdeucher)]

RS600/RS690/RS740 require 64 bit texture pitch alignment, perhaps the tile alignment needs some adjustment as well.

[Alexdeucher (alexdeucher)]

*64 byte

[Milan Plzik (emempi)]

I'm sorry, I was talking about tile alignment whole time, the modified function was r300_get_pixel_alignment, which definitely returns "tile" . Sorry for confusion.

[Milan Plzik (emempi)]

After more thorough testing, it seems that r300 driver is not able to correctly create surfaces of certain dimensions; random vram content is shown instead. Also, it doesn't seem to change, despite of application changing contents of its window. I tried some more changes in the alignment table (like multiplying related alignments by two), but it had only negative effect.

Not true. The r300 driver gets it right for all the other GPUs, it's just rs6xx that is broken.

Please try the attached patch.

  Sorry, I was generalizing too much; for me it's always in rs600 context.

>

I tried this patch; unfortunately it just reverted the old behavior -- problem with certain surface sizes was gone, but problem with texture alignment returned for both 8bpp and 32bpp textures. I did not notice any other differences.

  If you will have any other ideas/patches, I'll gladly test them; but I can't do much here by myself.

[Marek Olšák (maraeo)]

Nope, I've run out of ideas and I don't have the GPU.

(Milan, are you near Brno by any chance?)

I'll contact you by e-mail and we'll see whether we can arrange a meeting.

[ZeRo (zeronetlog)]

so any idea?

[Milan Plzik (emempi)]

After testing r300g driver (both with and withoug alignment fix) with different values for ColorTiling option, the results seems to be unaffected -- no matter whether the ColorTiling is enabled or disabled, I still get the original behavior (only affected by patch to alignment table).

[Marek Olšák (maraeo)]

The ColorTiling option only affects the buffers allocated by the DDX, which is usually just the window framebuffer. The textures and private framebuffers allocated by r300g are usually tiled regardless of the ColorTiling option.

Setting this environment variable disables tiling in r300g:

RADEON_DEBUG=notiling

It must be set such that the Gnome Shell can see it, of course.

  I tested gnome-shell with it; when using alignment table patches (Xorg's ColorTiling was always false), there was no change. However, when I reverted to original r300_texture_desc.c, things seem to work more-or-less correctly -- 8bpp textures seem to render fine (there's one case when I'm not sure), however, small 32bpp textures still render incorrectly.

UPDATE: looks like some fonts are not rendered properly either, but I can't justify whether they are rendered into 8bpp or 32bpp textures.

[Son-of-the-osiris (son-of-the-osiris)]

Is it still a issue with current mesa and kernel ?

From the image it seems like the same rendering issue I am having:

Same(?) text rendering issues as original reporter had

[ShinobiTeno (lct-mail)]

Affects me as well, OpenSuse 12.3 - Tumbleweed (kernel 3.7-3.11);
for my report and details (Samsung R60, hardly any different from people here) see http://phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?89174-Radeon-Gnome-3-AMD-Xpress-1250-%28Samsung-R60%29-Driver-Glitches&p=374780

Also see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/751828
Affects a LOT of people. :(((

I dump importance to medium-major, because its really distracting as it corrupts whole working area of gnome 3 / gnome shell (time, calender, system control (settings, power options))

With 3.11 kernel one gets a colorful triangle show, screen is tiled into four flashing triangle stips, after 3-4 seconds they vanish, but the font corruption stays same.

This bug might be linked with 35457

[ShinobiTeno (lct-mail)]

Yes, in 35457 in post 37 gnome-shell text corruption is exactly which I experience and is exactly same with screens in this bug. These two are the same critical bug.

[ShinobiTeno (lct-mail)]

This is definite duplicate of 35457 (compare screen attachments)

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 35457 ***

[Alexdeucher (alexdeucher)]

This is not a duplicate.

[ShinobiTeno (lct-mail)]

Still experiencing this with kernel 3.17-1 and latest Mesa from Manjaro.

Experiencing it even in Enlightment e17 (version e19) environiment, when hardware OpenGL compositing is selected. If I select software compositing, then this issue disappears.

Also, in KDE 4.14 I get random kernel hardlocks and freezes, I never had. I wonder if this issue is connected.

I also have affected system and wanted for ages to see it fixed (with or without my help). unfortunately, even if I still can try and load old linux distro where last working fglrx (proprietary driver) was working - I have no idea what to do next - even mmiotrace format apparently changed from 2.6.29 kernel era, and here i fear some more tracing will be needed (and tools for userspace tracing also appear to bitrot or not even properly support this GPU).

i tried to appear on #radeon but everyone was busy there (I think this situation will continue more or less due to new bug flow, new hardware, new features, other users and developers also wanting various levels of help). may be setting special 'hackday' for this or other specific bugs will help? if you like the idea - please reply (I tend to read dri-devel and mesa-dev ML).

Thanks in advance!

Micha, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.

Could you please provide the full computer model as noted on the sticker of the computer itself (not from the Bug Description)?

Sticker says

Model: NP-R40 plus

[Micha (m-st-w)]

Still interested in more information what you´re doing here - for what is a new report by me better than simply writing in the existing report - with exactly the same issue - since 2011...

Btw, why do you report marked this as incomplete? What is now still missing?

Whats going on here feels like "be quiet until we can say that the problem or driver is expired and noone should know what we are (not) doing here" ...

[ShinobiTeno (lct-mail)]

Not 2011, earlier.
I still have Samsung R60plus, which will be sold this month. I don't know who this poor person will be.

Basically, you can't do any 3D with it. The memory gets corrupted resulting in lines and trash on the screen.
This includes any compositing.

If you live in Europe, I can sell you the laptop for €70+shipping or look at ebay.
Everyone has basically given up.

[Micha (m-st-w)]

Yes, I know, it´s impossible to play any game since this damn driver-situation changed.

And I am about to sell this (still great) laptop, too...but this could be no solution. What will happen is, that the poor buyers sitting in 4 weeks here, where we are now.

However, I am getting more and more tired with this shit-situation...and that bugreports here ´expire´ (even if the problems are still exist) or someone again and again setting reports to ´incomplete´ does not make this feeling better -

so please Mr Penalver, tell me why you set this to ´incomplete´ again and what information is missing, that I can give them to you asap

Ups, I pressed 'yes if it is not too technical'...I hope that was enough, if not tell me pls if i should run it again with 'yes'.

Micha, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one. Could you please report this problem via https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xorg&component=Driver/Radeon (not make comments on preexisting bug reports)?

Please provide a direct URL to your bug report once you have made it so that it may be tracked.

Thank you for your understanding.

[Micha (m-st-w)]

Sorry, but I understand almost nothing here!!

There already is a report there by me, is that enough? If not, what is wrong, what is missing?

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=92651

or this from 2011 from another user (same chaos as here):

Same fun as here...^^ : What has this problem to do with Python or Zope?!?

Why should this be a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zope2.8/+bug/35998 ?

Does Alexdeucher receive this post here - or do I need to post this question there?

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Micha, Launchpad has a limitation here as it's referring to an upstream URL, not a URL on Launchpad.

Created attachment 122015
chromium BSU log with RADEON_DEBUG=texalloc

unfortunately, running with RADEON_DEBUG=notiling gives no visible improvements.

You have to disable tiling in the ddx as well in the device section of you xorg config:
Option "ColorTiling" "false"

Is there any hope that this will ever be fixed by someone?

Not even Kodi does work on the laptop - cannot verify if it is the same problem - but the osd while playback video looks the same (striped) way as the menubar of the Unity-desktop...think its the same problem.

There is almost nothing we can do with these laptops until someone will fix this!
