glitch with Opengl 3.1

I've been testing last project neon iso,

and found by enabling GLX/Opengl 3.1, there is a lot of screen corruption issues.
There was none with Opengl 2.

The corruption is easy to trigger, for example dragging the window to the top of the screen to maximize it triggers them.

This on a laptop with an intel hd4000.
I'm using Opengl 3.1 for compositing with standard Ubuntu 14.04 and it's working well.

It was very difficult to take a screenshot of this, and I managed to catch a very small glitch on the screenshot I include there.

Unlikely.
The driver version most likely doesn't support it and falls back to GL2.
You're "lucky" if it doesn't crash, see bug #327310

However.
a) Please attach the outputs of "glxinfo" and "qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation" on either system.
b) I assume you're referring to the single artifact column in the screenshot?
   -> Does it clear when you damage the area (move a window around or similar)?
   -> Does it happen with the oxygen decoration?
   -> Does it happen with disabled blurring?
   -> Is it related to some particular action? (Animtated window on-screen mapping, window activation or similar)

Very strangely, I don't manage to reproduce it.
Thus it was triggered with the combination of something else I haven't managed to find.

a) Ok, I attach it here, but it says Opengl 3.3 is fine (on both systems)
b) yes, this one. When moving the window or even selecting a menu of this window or another window, there was artifacts like parts of all the opened windows painted at wrong (but near from the original) locations. moving back to Opengl 2 solved that, and going back to Opengl 3.1 was triggering all that again.
Comment 3 Thomas Lübking 2015-01-14 23:05:47 UTC
the supportInformation are not from the project5 neon iso - thus are pretty worthless unless you've the very same issues with the system in use when obtaining the informations.
Comment 4 Justin Zobel 2020-11-12 00:11:46 UTC
I don't have the same hardware to test this.

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved. I'm setting status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "resolved" or "reported" when you respond, thanks.
