Bug Description
SRU Justification:
[Impact]
On IceLake platforms there might be a thin, horizon strap of corruption
image at the top of screen randomly after some series of window
operations and disappears within a second or so. This is found on
multiple platforms and is quite annonying that results in bad user
experience.
[Fix]
The upstream bug has been filed for previous platforms, e.g. GeminiLake
for an year or so, still working in progress, and so far this only known
work-around is to turn off framebuffer compression on affected platforms.
[Test Case]
The most easy way is to observe if such corruption appears during the
transition from GDM to gnome-shell.
[Regression Risk]
Low. The work-around for GeminiLake was landed to Linux stable 4.14.125
and has been backported to B/D.
======= Original Description ======
This is an follow-up for https:/
Right after GDM is login screen is rendered, there might be a thin strap of corrupted image at top of the display for a short while. Like f-d-o bug 108085, sometimes it can also be reproduced by clicking the date/time repeatedly to open and close the calendar several times. Etc.
Known work-around so far is to append kernel boot param "i915.enable_
