Description Treviño 2007-05-31 01:19:47 UTC
Using compiz-git I get some white textures on my KDE desktop; there are two main situations In which I get this:
 - Drag and Dropping a KDE icon (it's completely white)
 - Opening the kubuntu deb-install konqueror sub-menu

I'm sure this bug was fixed in 0.3.6 stable and also in 0.5 (both with ubuntu patches and using a clean - patchless build), then it comes back again...

It's very annoying for me :/

Buggy Screenshots follow (if you want also screenshots using compiz 0.5, just ask)...

Are you using AIGLX? If so, what version of the X server? The second screenshot could be caused by a bug which was fixed in xserver 1.2. Not sure about the first one though.

Sorry, I forgot to say this :P, however, yes! I've Xorg 1.2 (7.2) using AiGLX (but if I'm not wrong it was present also in Xgl, but I'm not so sure about this since I don't use it for months), so which is the fixed bug?

However I hoped also in a compiz workaround for this because I should redistribute compiz .deb files, and I'd prefer not to share (in this situation)  a newer/patched xserver too, but a patched version instead (also if we're using a workaround...)

So, if all is how you said, I think we can close the bug, also if I always wait for a workaround patch :P

Should be fixed in xserver 1.3.99.1. compiz should be able to work around the problem by always querying the server about which texture target it uses for a pixmap instead of relying on it using the requested one.
