Bug#611803: libdrm-radeon1: ..a tarred ('n ready for the feathers?) "camouflage" shade animation every frame in flightgear-2.0.0-2 'n -3
Package: libdrm-radeon1
Version: 2.4.23-1
Severity: important
...this bug is not seen by flightgear developers using Nvidia GPUs or Nvidia drivers,
I'm only aware of it being visible with ATI Radeon GPU and xserver-xorg-video-radeon
1:6.13.2-1 and flightgear 2.0.0-x and flightgear2.2-git, flightgear 1.9.1-x was fine.
...this bug was first reported upstream as
http://code.google.com/p/flightgear-bugs/issues/detail?id=264
and in Debian as #611685, as nobody else has reproduced this,
flightgear developers suspect this maybe a radeon or DRI bug.
...these 2 screenshots shows 2 of at least 4 different
German WWI-style printed camouflage canvas on FG's
default C172P, these change every frame in FG-2.0.0-2,
but not in -3, so there is an improvement, but it is
flying blindly, only the spitfireIX in FG-2.2|git
still has the flickering.
...hw:laptop, Fujitsu-Siemens Celsius H240 w T7200 cpu,
4GB memory and ATI RV530 on Debian Sid/Experimental
radeon driver, on Debian Sid's latest flightgear,
will add output of any debug output idea, here in
https://github.com/gasguru/flightgearthings
...screen shots, lshw, X logs etc in:
