--- Comment #10 from MirceaKitsune sonichedgehog_hyperblast00@yahoo.com --- Created attachment 138438 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=138438&action=edit Screenshot of the Blender window glitching

I should add another detail to the discussion. I know this may be a separate issue which might have nothing to do with the crash, but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if it does: Glitched graphics often indicate something going wrong with the display, such as corrupt textures in video memory, which may ultimately lead to just such a lockup.

On occasion, certain programs (namely Firefox and Blender) glitch out and draw broken rectangles all over the window. Some of those glitches are just boxes of random colors, others contain pieces of past images (for instance I saw patterns from my lock screen background). Sometimes they quickly disappear on their own, at other times I have to restart the program as it becomes illegible and unusable. If I move anything the squares flicker all over the place. The glitches continue even after I disable desktop effects, thus KDE compositing should have nothing to do with it.

Attached is a screenshot of the glitch happening in Blender, showing its window covered in the corrupt squares. I'm curious what your opinion is. Again I know this may be an unrelated issue, but I'm wondering whether it indicates some video storage corruption that's also leading up to the lockups.
