Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

On Jaunty 64 bit with Intel GM965 and UXA enabled Blender is not usable because all GUI elements change their position on hovering. This does not happen with EXA.

This will be common across all intel chipsets, and all testcases that use frontbuffer rendering will be broken. Enumerating them won't be interesting.

Luckily real apps don't use frontbuffer rendering, so it's not a high priority.

Bryce,
I'm actually experiencing the same problem (actually the menus don't even show without alt+tab "refresh") with some packages from xorg-edgers. Here's the info:
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.7.99.1+git20090427.e55d9431-0ubuntu0sarvatt

xorg.conf (relevant part)

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
 #Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
 Option "EXAOptimizeMigration" "true"
 Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
 Option "Tiling" "false"

And the problem occurs when uxa is enabled. Exa works fine.

Is my driver recent enough? I can test this with 2.7.0 also if needed.

Bryce Harrington (bryce) wrote :

Thanks. Btw, I notice you're using "uxa" and "greedy" together... do those have an effect beyond just setting "uxa" alone?

Testing 2.7.99.1+git is definitely recent enough for us to send this upstream. If you have time to test against 2.7.0, that would be useful in that we probably will be merging 2.7.0 into karmic fairly shortly, but will likely wait a bit for 2.8.0. (2.8.0 drops EXA entirely, so I'd like to verify all of the high importance UXA bugs are gone before we make the commitment to abandon EXA entirely.)

I'm now running the following packages:

They mention that the fix would be in xserver 1.6 branch back in the beginning of may but I'm using the latest 1.6 branch from git and all of those packages I update those packages on xorg-edgers just about every day if there are any non-trivial commits.

Could it be dri2proto that needs to be updated and stuff rebuilt against that? They added DRI2GetBuffersWithFormat interface to both -intel and dri2proto as well as fixed a dri2 version check in xserver 1.6 branch a bit before this comment

I updated xserver to master branch along with the requisite x11proto-dri2-dev 2.1 and x11proto-input-dev 1.9.99.6 and there isn't an offset menu rendering problem anymore using the static mesa version on the blender website. The ubuntu repo version and static python version from blender.org doesn't show dropdown menus though leading me to think it's a mesa bug in 7.6 left still.

Well that's good news, Robert.

Now, how can I test this in Jaunty? Can you point me to some deb-packages or preferably to some good howto about compiling xserver myself to deb-packages. I checked auto-xorg-git and that sounds promising. Have to check it little bit more.

Juho Rutila (juho-rutila) wrote :

So,

the static-mesa blender from blender.org works fine even with the official ubuntu repo versions of xserver, xorg-video-intel, mesa and libdrm. I can confirm this on Jaunty.

But, I think this bug is still valid because the non-static-mesa version of the blender doesn't work with the latest mesa (that has Ian Romanick's patches on it).

Is this status information right? Should the upstream be noted (because now this bug is duplicate to other bug that is marked as fixed)?

Robert Hooker (sarvatt) wrote :

Well I should have been clearer, the offset menu problem is gone on all versions using the latest git master branch versions of everything, but the dropdowns do not render any more in anything but the static mesa version. Hovering over the buttons still selects the menu in the correct place now. I have only packaged everything for karmic since it is such a large change against jaunty, but if you have a spare machine or install to test it you can use my packages here

https://edge.launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/xorg-testing

According to the blender website its a known problem with blender for the menus to not render correctly on intel.

"Users with Intel on-board graphics: some graphics operations (menus or border select) don't show due to driver bug."

To get around the problem for the immediate future, you can launch blender with

LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 blender

which works perfect for me.

I have been testing this and is not fixed in Karmic yet, but it is fixed upstream (in the sense that blender now is unusable in a new and different way). The upstream bug requires fixes in xorg-server, the intel driver and the kernel, and the xorg-server version currently in Karmic (1.6.1.901 IIRC) does not contain the fix. The xorg-edgers PPA has it (1.6.2). See my comments on bug 401067 (which probably is a duplicate of this one).

I would like to report the new problems upstream using the xorg-edgers PPA, but before I got far enough to collect the information I wanted, my computer crashed and my karmic partition got corrupted. So if anyone beats me to it, it would be great. (Don't know when I will have the time to reinstall)

Hi Geir, thanks for that information, that helps narrow it down.

From what you've indicated, am I reading correctly that we have appropriate versions of -intel and the kernel, but just need to update to a newer xserver (e.g. 1.6.3) to gain the fix? Assuming that to be true, I'll move this bug to the xserver. Hopefully we should have 1.6.3 before too long.

I wish it was that easy.. UXA with the old dri2proto rendered menus offset, but with the new dri2 features it doesnt render dropdowns at all still even on xserver 1.7 that had the commits that were supposed to fix it well before they hit 1.6.2. There are _many_ upstream bug reports on it, but it doesnt seem like the fix it going to make it until blender 2.5 where they switch from single buffered to triple buffered rendering. The bug is hitting radeons now as well now that they are moving to dri2.

I just recently jumped into this thread, but I had been having similar issues with Blender that you all have mentioned. I can confirm that I got Blender to perform properly in Jaunty. The short story is, I simply updated my display drivers.

If you like long stories, continue reading :-D

I took the following steps:

1 - Followed the instructions in post #12 from Bryce Harrington. (Note: This didn't seem to solve the problem, and I'm not sure if the drivers in the PPA contributed to my eventual success, because I think I ended up further updating those drivers in step 2. But I've included the step for the sake of tracking what I did.)

2 - Updated to the latest driver of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance#Use%20preview%20of%202.8%20driver

3 - Edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf to enable UXA

Some notes:
- Blender now runs correctly, even with my Visual Effects settings at the max (before, when using the software renderer for Blender, I had to turn off Visual Effects).

- When I run glxinfo, I get the following error: "get fences failed: -1". Even after searching around the forums and interwebz, I'm not exactly sure what that means, but my graphics accelerations seems to be working. And, from what I understand, that fences error is harmless. If anyone knows the real deal, please point me in the right direction. I'm curious.

- One other very minor issue is that now, when I mouse over items in a drop-down menu (not within Blender), it appears as though only the top half of the word is highlighted. I've included a screenshot. It's liveable, but I thought I should point it out.

Yes. Of course there is a much higher chance of those bugs being
resolved if you report them. If you have a reproducable segfault with
a backtrace, I think that should be fairly straightforward to
troubleshoot.

Note that this is not a forum thread but a bug report and that this
