Bug 573514 – media-libs/cogl-1.22.0-r1 winsys-egl-kms patch breaks gnome-shell

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pascal Flöschel 2016-01-31 16:44:31 UTC]

The winsys-egl-kms patch from upstream breaks gnome-shell/wayland. 
Upstream reports issues on Intel and I reported it for Nouveau. Please remove this patch until upstream has a working patch.

This commit is also applied on Fedora to try to avoid a bug is getting a blank screen when, for example, powering off the computer, without it, the screen turns black after X are killed and you need to wait until computer is effectively powered off.

Maybe this is only showing problems on wayland setups as, from what I see in your comments, you are using wayland, right?

Ah, are you referring to the cogl-1.22.0-initial-output.patch patch? (as the bogus one?)

I was referring to the cogl-1.22.0-wait-flip.patch one as the patch I want to preserve ;)

Yes, removing/commenting this patch fixes gnome session on wayland for me:

        # Upstream fixes from 1.22 branch
        # winsys-egl-kms: bypass initial output setup if kms fd passed in
        epatch "${FILESDIR}"/${P}-initial-output.patch
