Garbage seen on each startup #637

Closed carnager closed 3 years ago

carnager commented 5 years ago

Every new termite window I open shows garbage on top of the window, which instantly disappears. Sometimes switch forward and back to other workspaces the garbage re-appears and only disappears until i focus the window or the content changes.

It looks like this: img_20181016_165956

I tried disabling every kind of argb stuff in termite config, but it does not change anything. I should note that this does not happen with gnome-terminal, which is also vte3 based.

Same issue here, even happens when switching between workspaces that have maximized termite windows. Upon workspace switch the content of these termite windows will very briefly show garbage content, just like shown in the picture, before rendering the actual content.

Is this with or without a compositor?

For me it doesn't change if I use compton or not, it will still show garbled contents before the clean render.

My system specs: OS: Arch Linux x64 Kernel: linux-amd-staging-drm-next-git 4.20.782239.99e4bfa530cc (I've been running into some amdgpu problems, but this issue here happens with stable 4.18.x kernels as well) Xorg: 1.20.1 xf86-video-amdgpu: 18.1.0 Mesa: 18.2.2 i3-wm: 4.14.1

I can see it sometimes too and I also using amdgpu, i3 and archlinux as well. Does somebody observe this who is not using either i3 or amdgpu?

jelly commented 5 years ago

I have an amdgpu with i3 now as well, but I can't reproduce it.

Termite is obsolete. Please use Alacritty instead. See https://github.com/thestinger/termite#termite-is-obsoleted-by-alacritty for more details.
