This bug is marked as "Won't Fix" because it won't be fixed. xserver- xorg-video-intel is old and should not be used anymore. The default built-in driver (called 'modesetting') should be used instead.
I'm not sure how safe it would be to remove xserver-xorg-video-intel from the Ubuntu archive because people upgrading from older releases where it was the only driver, might still have config files that depend on it. Not being able to find the driver specified in your config file would cause bigger issues than just "visual artifacts", like not being able to log in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867668 Title: Visual artifacts in Gnome Shell when using the old 'intel' Xorg driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1867668/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
