Re: OWB gives screen corruption on Radeon + Mediator 4000Di
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 9:41 pm
Well here are the results of the tests so far. It looks like it is the Radeon that somehow causes the problem. I get corruption with only the graphicscard installed - with or without 3D enabled. The card is a Radeon 9200 with 256MB bought with the Mediator directly from Elbox.
The problem in short is that I get graphics corruption when I resieze/move the window of OWB (both MUI version and the latest Reaction version). OWB is the only program that I have really noticed this with. I have not experienced anything similar on OS3.9.
I have recorded three movies on my iPhone and uploaded them to dropbox to illustrate. I must warn in advance that the movies are rather large. Think the best way to play tem is to download them and play them locally.
I am aware that the constant resiezing I do is not "normal" behavior but the result are the same if I do it over a longer period of time.
With only the Radeon and a ethernet card (in the correct position according to the FAQ).

With 3D enabled and only the Radeon.

I will test some more with other programs/other position of the cards in the weekend.
Anything special I can do to get closer to a solution/finding the specific cause of the problem. Unfortunately I do not have other PCI graphics cards so I can not test with another card.
