Description Sebastian Mate 2016-06-27 10:59:53 UTC
Hi, I've noticed graphics corruption, especially in menus, when I move the mouse across the entries. It's most apparent in the system monitor, where it also appears in the rendered graphs.

But it also appears in the menus of Dolphin. In other applications (e.g. Firefox) it does not happen.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks, Sebastian

Reproducible: Always




This is a i7 system, standard Kubunutu 16.04 64 bit, using OpenGL 3.1 and GLX, set to "full screen repaints". Changing these settings has no major impact on the phenomenon.

The system is using the "Intel Open Source Technology Center - MESA DRI Intel (R)HD Graphics 530 (Skylake GT2)" driver, Open GL version 3.0 Mesa 11.2.0

This has obviously been fixed with the recent updates in Kubuntu 16.10!
