           Summary: [r300g] Fullscreen OpenGL game now has occasional
                    flicker (bisected)
           Product: Mesa
           Version: git
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Drivers/DRI/r300
        AssignedTo: dri-devel at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: rankincj at googlemail.com


Playing World of Warcraft fullscreen with my RV350, and the screen is now
occasionally turning pitch black for a fraction of a second. No other
side-effects noticed, but the "flicker" is annoying.

The pitch black screen isn't completely blank - it looks like the minimap is
being rendered (briefly!) in the bottom LH corner of the screen.

My limited git-fu has narrowed the problem down to this commit:

16887d042a917fa4773e4d853f50051b54e9948c is the first bad commit

    glx: Drop broken drawable garbage collection

    Doesn't work for pixmaps, was looking up the GLX XID and was never thread
    safe.  Instead, just destroy the client side structures when the
    drawable is no long current for a context.
