https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38270

Summary: Color Tiling unusable on NI Product: DRI Version: XOrg CVS Platform: x86-64 (AMD64) OS/Version: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/Radeon AssignedTo: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org ReportedBy: aidan@cisco.com

latest d-r-t/mesa/ddx that picked up the default change to on for color tiling now causes total screen corruption on NI with KDE 4.6.4.

For the first couple of seconds of KDE startup the display is clean then switches to garbage.

The workaround is to disable color tiling manually.
