Dear Maintainer, These days corruption is observed on graphical applications after suspend on my system. I suspect a problem with Nouveau driver because switching to Nvidia proprietary driver fixes the issue (my video device is a Nvidia Quadro FX 550). On fresh boot, everything works very well. Then I suspend the system to RAM or I hibernate it. When resuming the system works well as well but graphical applications show slight annoying corruption such as blurring of letters or switch between letters. Currently for instance h is replaced by k. When I close my session and thus restart X, the issue is no longer observed. I can upload screen captures of before suspend vs after suspend situations. Sincely, Moi
Could you please test with a 3.11 kernel from experimental? If the problem persists, file a bug upstream. See http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Bugs/ for instructions. TIA, Sven
I have tested with a 3.11 kernel (3.11-trunk-686-pae, 3.11-1~exp1 (2013-09-12)) and the problem persists. I am going upstream, thank you once again for your answer. Supplementary information : Most of the graphical corruptions can be overcome by restarting impacted applications (in my case : openbox/tint2 and iceweasel) so the importance of this bug is not as high as I indicated first. Moreover the appearance of corruptions is erratic so it may be hard hard to reproduce them. The most repetable corruption on my system is the corruption of iceweasel's tabs after resizing the window : I did not succeed in suspending/resuming the system without experiencing this corruption.

I have problems with the nvidia-drivers, too (os and cs) and stumbled about this bug. Looking at the upstream bug report, I think this can be closed, because it seems to be fixed in libdrm 2.4.48 and later.
