Hi!

I'm experiencing this on Jessie's version 2:2.21.15-2+b2 as well as on the
version on experimental (2:2.99.917-1~exp1).  I'm currently running Jessie
up to date.  I don't know if this is a fault on the driver or on the kernel
side, I have tested several kernels up to the 3.18 on experimental, it
happens with all of them.

The weird things I'm seing seem all related to hibernation (sounds like
memory recovery problems) but also I'm seeing a black screen after boot, I
mean that I'm on VT7 where X are running but I'm seing a black screen, I
then switch to one of the text VTs and I see the text screen, then I go back
to VT7 and X are running fine.

Maybe this is all related, as when I see the memory problems after
hibernation if I try to go to a text VT, it is all black, returning to VT7
gets me back to X but the memory problems are still there.

The main problem I'd like to describe is that the machine, a Compaq Presario
C760EM for which I had filled bug report 571741 on the 2.6 kernel era, also
related to memory and hibernation, restores Ok after hibernation but some
texts (not fixed fonts) and graphics get all dirty, to the point that the
fonts are not readable and the graphics look like moved or something. I'm
attaching a gimp capture to ilustrate what is happening, even though you can
sometimes get it much worse that this capture.

I see that the driver already has a lot of bugs and we are quite late into
the schedule of Jessie, so maybe there are other priorities, but if you feel
like we can give it a try, just let me know what to do next.

Thanks in advance.

Please get logs from the latest kernel and X driver version and use them
to file a bug upstream following
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/how-report-bugs
Then let us know the bug number for tracking.

Thanks,
