Chromium

Since upgrading to x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.15.0, some apps that have icons with transparent backgrounds instead render with dark (black) backgrounds.  Screenshots attached.

I did upgrade to x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.15.0 a few days ago, but this problem didn't occur until I upgraded the intel driver.  Also, the problem goes away if I downgrade (to x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.13.0).

Also this is when running GNOME3/gnome-shell/mutter from the gnome overlay.  I haven't tried it using another X environment.

Can you post emerge --info output?
There is a regression with Intel drivers in 2.6.38, which causes corruption issues. Maybe your bug is related to #362019 ?

Actually when I thought about it I thought it was similar to bug #352130 which I also reported.  Then I remembered comments 2 and 3 in that bug.  And I checked, and I still had SHM disabled locally.  I re-enabled it by removing my xorg.conf, and the problem went away.

So it looks like a re-introduction of that 3-month old bug.  I had forgotten about that bug and that I locally masked 2.14.*.  Then when 2.15* came along I see the problem is still not fixed.

Perhaps mark as duplicate?  Anyone willing to take a crack at this?

I'm not experiencing this with xf86-video-intel-2.18.0.  Closing out.
