                    other apps
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)

dmesg output

After updating to fedora kernel 4.12.5-300 from 4.11.11-300 screen is drawn
with
corrupt areas.

For example login using KDE and start a new Konsole and start typing at the
bash prompt to see the problem.

Text is not drawn cleanly, it is overlayed with blobs that come and go.

Also seen in PyQt apps and firefix.

Problem is still present in 4.13.4-200.fc26.x86_64.

Is there any experiment I can run to help debug this?

My guess is that the difference is due to enablement of acceleration? Not sure
if that's when GP106 happened though. You could boot with nouveau.noaccel=1 to
disable it.

I've recently fixed a bug in mesa introduced in 17.2 which could maybe cause
some of these issues. What version of mesa are you using? [commit
b20bccbcacc6170cfc4f18332491131df5bac811 upstream.]

"Overlayed with blobs" generally means either texture corruption or ...
something else.

Are you using the 'modesetting' DDX? If so, I strongly recommend using the
'nouveau' one.

nouveau.noaccel=1 seems to fix the problem.

But your "modesetting" DDX comment made me dig into the Xorg config.
I was using the modesetting DDX and added the following config:

$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nouveau.conf 
Section "Device"
    Identifier "Nvidia card"
    Driver "nouveau"
EndSection

That also seems to fix the problem.

I'm saying "seems" because I have not done a lot of testing.

I will update this bug once I have made sure this is "user error" (no nouveau
config).

Oh and mesa is at 17.2.2-2.fc26.x86_64.

The problems are all gone.

Please chalk this up to user error
- did not configure Xorg to use the nouveau driver.

More like "distro error" -- "listened to the cacophony of people saying
modesetting is the way to go".

The real issue is that there's some issue in the GL, hence the display issues.
Now they will be limited to applications that use GL [which sadly is "a lot"
these days].

I raised this with fedora:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1483037

and have updated to comment that the wrong driver is might be used by default.

I wont recommend using/keeping the GP106 (GTX 1060). It cant ever run with free
software:
https://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/04/15/nvidia_gtx_900_linux_driver_roadbloack/
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-XDC2017
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-XDC2016-NVIDIA

Sell this crappy GP102 card away and go away from nvidia. Nvidia died with the
780ti card. Its the last end-user card that can be used normaly. Everything
else is in some countries even a legal problem. Because the manufacturer
(nvidia) blocks the users from beeing able to boot the software they want on
THEIR hardware - happyly illegal in some countries. Hopefully some layer would
sue the heck out of nvidia so that they would have to release the private
signing key or close their doors.
Blocking the freedom of the users on such way should not be accepted by anyone.
