Graphical Glitch - Arch Linux

edited March 2017 in Linux

Hello! i managed to install the software on Arch linux following the steps here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=191992 plus the package "pth" that terminal acussed as missing when i tried to lauch the software for the first time, now it works nice, but it has graphical glitches on the drawing area of the interface, as in this pic: http://i.imgur.com/Y10NAV0.jpg

Any ideas on what can be causing this?

Aditional info: I Run Arch Linux kernel 4.9.11-1-ARCH on a AMD FX6300, 8Gb of RAM and Radeon HD7750 (so i think it ins't related to the graphic card as it is a fairly old model, wih good drivers out there)

    Can you try changing the value of GLSWAPMODE? For some graphic cards, screen buffers need to be swapped/copied differently.

    where is this option located?

    Nevermind, found it, it was on "2", set it to "0" now it works flawless, thanks!

    Hi
    I had glitches too under Linux 4.10.0-33-generic Ubuntu x86_64 Xenial 16.04.1
    See screenshot I attached.
    I set GLSWAPMODE=0 in commandline and problem was over (no use to reinstall)
