Bug ID: 358901
Summary: Black Canvas appears and remains during start up-
windows 7 (Not drivers)
Product: krita
Version: 2.9.10
Platform: Windows CE
OS: other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: grave
Priority: NOR
Component: usability
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: japars...@alaska.edu
I recently reinstalled Krita onto my laptop, it is using a ‘intel core i3’ and
runs on Microsoft windows 7.
Following the reinstallation of the program the canvas now displays black.
Notes:
1. I did not update the version of Krita I was using, nor- did my drivers
get updated at this time.
2. Upon reading about the Black Screen of Death I tried to fix the problem
by updating the drivers. This did not produce any changes. BSOD remains.
3. In an attempt to thwart the BSOD I removed Krita again and downloaded,
uninstalled, and reinstalled, three different versions of Krita, each
progressively older. This had no effect. BSOD now affects ALL versions of
Krita.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. download Krita onto a computer using Windows 7 with an intel i3 core
2. open krita, see black screen of death.
3. (cry) optional.
Actual Results:
Black screen of death still persists
Expected Results:
shown a white canvas as it had in the past.
I read a lot of the blogs saying that you need to do ‘Update the drivers’
and/or a ‘driver is broken- came that way from the manufacturer’
This is NOT the case.
Krita was working fine, white canvas, no sluggish reactions, nothing. The black
screen of death only came to pass AFTER I installed the same version of Krita I
was previously running.
