artifacts/corruption in atom editor
Hello -
I have several major glitches using intel video. Two of these may be quite
separate:
One is regarding artifacts on the screen and rendering -- for example with
"TearFree" "false", the terminal shows artifacts from previous states and
becomes nearly unusable - on the other hand setting "TearFree" "true" seems to
create another issue where the screen will (very briefly flicker black between
frequent refreshes, e.g. when scrolling or tailing a large amount of text).
The other is excessive corruption (I've seen it in other programs but far less
frequently for whatever reason) and rendering problems when using Chrome or
other chrome based applications (atom-editor). Even with "TearFree" "true" I
still experience corruption in atom-editor lines, switching between files
sometimes causes the screen to the write the text buffer one by one scanning
down etc.
I have experimented with a number of parameters, none of which seem to help
much (setting "AccelMethod" to "uxa" makes the desktop very very slow but
doesn't seem to fix much, I've tried glamor as well).
These issues appear to persist across both GL and non-GL based composite
managers (tested with gnome-desktop and openbox+xcompmgr).
