Bug 368501 – net-misc/tigervnc - apply patch from upstream for display corruption

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description devsk 2011-05-23 20:53:45 UTC]

Please see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=652590 

It will be great if either we pulled to latest code or at least pulled that patch in. The display corruption is very obvious by just moving the windows around.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Move the konsole window
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
 Corruption artifacts in the window area

Expected Results:  
No corruption artifacts.

We already have a newer version stable...(not on ppc64, though)

[Comment 5 devsk 2012-05-13 19:14:39 UTC]

Unfortunately, upstream haven't included that patch for some reason and I still see corrupt display for GUI programs like gvim.

[Comment 6 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2012-09-16 18:27:57 UTC]

This patch is already applied in the versions that use xorg-server-1.12(i.e, all the ones in the tree). Following with fedora/RH's bugzilla, seems like there are some issues with some WMs(i can reproduce with fluxbox).

I'll keep on eye on what decision they make.

See comment at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=734424#c12

Gentoo needs to move to a revision after 4941 to get the fix. I think 1.2.0 does not have it.

tigervnc-1.2.80-svn5065 is in the tree
