Source: linux
Version: 3.16.7-ckt7-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
On the debian-x list I've been suggested to report this bug toward the linux
kernel.
I have some display chunks as soon as I use some of my swap space. I noticed it
first with a VirtualBox VM as it generally needs space from my swap partition.
But it also appears when compiling programs as soon as it requires the swap
partition.
I'm on an up-to-date jessie (kernel 3.16.7-ckt7-1 x86_64) and my Xorg uses
intel driver.
The issue appears with default config (no xorg.conf, ie. driver intel, with DRI
& Accel).
But I found this workaround : using either of these options in xorg.conf hides
the issue
Option "NoAccel" "on"
Option "AccelMethod" "off"
Using driver fbdev is another workaround
The other AccesMethods "UXA, SNA, blt" and DRI=off won't workaround the issue.
BTW: Compiling & installing the last version of xserver-xorg-video-intel from
experimental (2:2.99.917-1~exp1) doesn't fix the issue.
