Strange console-redrawing issues

Hi,
recently I reinstalled Arch, mainly for latex-editing and programming. I installed Infinality which looks really nice. Other than that, I use a vanilla Gnome 3 setup and the nvidia-driver.
The problem occurs when editing semi-large files in vim (full screen gnome-terminal, syntax highlighting on, starts after scrolling up and down for a while) and sometimes even directly in zsh (tried bash as well) when there is a lot of output (dmesg).
The terminal seems to forget to refresh (will display half of a line of the dmesg output with the cursor at the end) and from that point on there is a strange delay until the screen refreshes. Waiting a few seconds sometimes refreshes the screen. When a button is pressed, the screen refreshes instantly, but does not show that last action. (So pressing Enter on the frozen dmesg ouput will show the end of the output and one zsh-prompt, but not the second one).
I tried different fonts and different terminal emulators, all show the same behaviour. I even created a new user without any vimrc or other dotfiles and the problem occured, although not as extreme as with my main user.
Has anyone else experienced this? Xorg.0.log doesn't show anything wrong.
Thanks

  • Screen redraw issues after update to 10.7.4

    Anyone else seeing screen redraw issues since updating to 10.7.4? Suddenly, the zoom tool stops working or causes visual errors.

    thank you FFS48, it really helped and might work fine as temporary solution. I was about to restore my OS from backup to 10.7.3 version... as booting from it made no errors. The latest 10.7.4 update filled my log filles with different error messages like:
    2012-05-10 23:53:17,000 kernel: SMC::smcReadKeyAction ERROR PC2C kSMCBadArgumentError(0x89) fKeyHashTable=0x0xffffff8030d4f000

    which might be caused by iStatMenus as these log entries are allways next to iStat log entries.
    I often need to access my Mac Pro using Back to my Mac from my MBP. Do you know will it still be possible having WiFi on MacPro off?
    It is strange, that the latest update delivered more visible problems than benefits....
    What I tried to solve the problem and that did not work:
    - Disable WiFi sync on iTunes (after reading some forums discussing similar problem)
    - Uninstalled Xcode (as some forums suggested)
    It is some how related to WiFi and iOS devices that sync to that computer. Switching these iOS devices off - removes the problem, and I believe it should be reported to Apple.
    Is there any URL to Apple bug submit form?

  • Screen redraw issues

    Hi everyone
    My new Macbook appears to have screen redraw issues (as I've mentioned in other posts). It often does not redraw the screen quickly or smoothly. It may redraw the screen in bands from the top, or the Dock may come up in jerks. Also, the cursor often freezes, especially when switching from one app. to another, or after performing a function in an app (e.g. Save, or Delete in Finder). Messing around with the keyboard or trying another function often unfreezes the cursor again. It's frustrating.
    I think it's probably a compatibility issue, since quite a few of the applications I transferred over from my iBook are not yet available as fat binaries ("universal" binaries). Yet they seem to work OK. I'll post about that separately.
    If anyone else has experienced screen redraw issues, I'd be interested to hear about them. This machine should run much faster than my iBook, not much more slowly.

    Thanks again, Shawn. I wasn't sure whether to post all the problems as one mess, or separately so people could search for them separately. I decided on separately, in case they weren't related, but mentioned the other bits in each post in case they were.
    I myself searched under all these problems, but had little success. I don't know if that's an artefact of the Search or not. I suppose it depends on things like using "frozen cursor" or "freezing cursor". I certainly found more posts related to my problems when I read all the forum posts for MacBook Users. It took quite a while, but was more productive than searching. I'd rather not have to spend quite as much time on finding data, though.
    Thanks again.

  • Redraw issues when compile for Air

    This is about redraw issues which occur in Flash, when I try to compile a file in Air 2.6. The initial files were built in inDesign CS5.5, saved as a FLA, and opened in Flash CS5.5.
    I created a test file in inDesign to be used as an Air App, as I saw discussed and done on several videos on Adobe.tv. The file has 3 pages. The pages are pretty simple. Though there are some  clipping paths and animation.
    Here are the steps:
    1.
    I ported the filed to Flash, as a FLA.
    2.
    I opened the FLA in Flash, and added some more animation.
    I added simple code so the file will go from frame to frame, (what were the pages in inDesisgn), on mouse click in the frame.
    3.
    If I complie it is Flash, it works.
    4.
    If I compile it in Air, which I want to do, when it gets to the last page, it starts to have redraw-issues.
    When  the user clicks on page/frame 3, (the last page), there is AS3 code,  a gotoAndStop(), which normally  takes the user back to frame 1. But in Air, the user gets to page one,  but only sees page 3, thinking they are on page 3, as the redraw of page 1 never occurs. I tested this very  carefully, by rebuilding the whole thing and removing every element and all code and starting over piece by piece to isolate the issue.
    5.
    The  issue seems to be, if I remove all the pagespreads from inDesign, which the FLA transformed into "movieclips" in Flash, it works fine without redraw issues. If I  add any of the pagespread movieclips to a frame in the Flash file, as they were when  imported, the redraw issue occurs, but only when I compile in Air.
    Have  you heard of this before? I was wondering if there might be some  settting in Air that is conflicting with the inDesign created pages which are now movieclips in Flash. I am hoping there is something that I can do to  fix it, as I would like to continue to create the spreads in inDesign.
    I  am working on a PC in Windows Vista. I wondered if this was the issue  as well. I can share the file if you want to see it, compiled in flash,  and compiled in Air or the FLA.
    Thanks very much,
    e

    I fixed it. it was not the code. it was the use of text. This time  when exporting to an FLA from indesign, I  turned the TLF text to pixels, and now it compiles  fine. I isolated the problem by dismantling each item in the indesign  spread, and seeing when the problem occured. once I removed the type, it  had no issues. I was using hanging indents. Maybe that was the issue.  All I know is once I turned off the TLF text option, there are no  problems.It is sad to lose that feature. but at least it works, and I  would rather have my type look well formatted with hanging intents, and  correct kearning, even if i have to rasterize it first.
    geez. that was fun.

  • Application redraw issue over Citrix and Terminal Server

    Hi All,
    We provide a client-server application which connects to a SQL Server database. The middle-tier is hosted on an application server (Windows Server 2008 R2) which in turn connects to the SQL Server database. The fat client can either be installed on user laptops/desktops
    or published using Citix/Terminal services.
    We have a long standing issue which frankly I just cannot fathom. A customer has published the client via Citrix to users and using roaming profiles. If an employee is using the application in London, the roaming profile is created on a server in London and
    connects to the middle-tier in London. If an employee is using the application in Glasgow, the roaming profile is created in Edinburgh and the user connects to the middle-tier in London. The customer is also using DFS
    The roaming profile consists of the 'My Documents', 'My Pictures', 'My Videos', 'My Music' and 'Windows' folder. Distributed File System (DFS) is used for roaming profile folder replication between offices. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/cc732863%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
    The Edinburgh users are experiencing application redraw issue where the interface loads in chunks. For example, when a user scrolls up and down or left and right, the data loads immediately (from SQL Server) but the interface (GUI) loads in blocks. You can
    actually see each segment of the GUI components loading. The issue also occurs if connecting via a Terminal Server where the application is also installed.
    For London users, it all works fine. If an Edinburgh user comes to London, they have no issues.
    The network connection is super fast between the various offices.
    The application is built using C++ and Delphi and uses the GDI API to draw the objects.
    Any guidance is appreciated.

    Hello partner,
    Thanks for contacting Microsoft. This is Sophia who is going to help with this issue. From your description, I learnt that users from Edinburgh have application redraw issue. However, London users worked fine. Please let me know if I misunderstand your purpose.
    Based on the information, it seems that the issue located in the middle-tier in London. Could you try building a middle-tier in Edinburgh and then test how the issue goes?
    Besides, based on my experience and research, by default the allocation of the bandwidth is 70 percent for graphics data and 30 percent for virtual channel data, meaning when bandwidth usage is under pressure, graphics data is guaranteed to get 70 percent
    of the available bandwidth.  And we can tweak the settings a bit for some scenarios. To change the settings, we can set registry values. Please reference the information below.
    ===========================================================================================================================================
    Note: For these settings to take effect, the computer must be restarted.
    Following is the list of registry values that affect the bandwidth allocation behavior. These are all DWORD values under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TermDD:
    ·         FlowControlDisable: When set to 1, this value disables the new flow control algorithm, making it essentially First-In-First-Out (FIFO) for all packet requests. This provides results similar to Windows Server
    2003. (The default for this value is 0).
    ·         FlowControlDisplayBandwidth / FlowControlChannelBandwidth: These two values together determine the bandwidth distribution between display and virtual channels. You can set these values in the range of 0–255.
    For example, setting FlowControlDisplayBandwidth = 100 and FlowControlChannelBandwidth = 100 creates an equal bandwidth distribution between video and VCs. The default is 70 for FlowControlDisplayBandwidth and 30 for FlowControlChannelBandwidth, thus making
    the default distribution equal to 70–30.
    ·         FlowControlChargePostCompression: If set to 1, this value bases the bandwidth allocation on post-compression bandwidth usage. The default for this value is 0, which means that the bandwidth distribution is applied
    on pre-compressed data.
    For more information about RDP Bandwidth, please reference the article below.

  • Photoshop cc redraw issues mac yosemite

    having issues with mac yosemite, intel hd 4000 1024mb card, 16gb ram and 2.5 intel core i5 with photoshop cc 2014. it has redraw issues when you draw objects around the screen.. its jjittery and not smooth like it should be. i dont know why this is happening but would like to know when it will be fixed. it seems to only be happening on mac osx because i have bootcamp with windows 7 running on this same macbook pro and it runs perfectly fine on there. any ideas on whats going on and when this will be resolved?

    A downgrade don't work for me. The Mac is brand new (3 Days old). Yosemite is the custom os. I think a downgrade is impossible.
    I'm very disappointed about that, because i bought this machine just for Photoshop...

  • IDCS2 Screen Redraw issues

    We're having screen redraw issues when panning and zooming pages. Getting screen anomolies and jittery display performance. It only happens when using InDesign, no other apps exhibit similar issues.
    PC specs are:
    WinXP Prop SP2
    Dell Optiplex GX620, 2GB RAM
    ATI Radeon X600, 256MB Video Card
    Dual Dell 19" Flat Displays
    Tried setting Display Performance slider in Prefs to middle setting and still getting redraw problems.
    Is there a setting for the video card that might help?
    Thanks,
    -Danny

    InDesign is known to have display issues with scrolling (white bars appearing where the edge of the screen used to be), although I don't believe I've ever seen it panning. As far as I know there is nothing you can do but grumble.
    Not a lot of help, I'm afraid.

    Just to update. this is relevant for inDesign users who want to port to Flash, and compile as an app in Air.
    It turned out what was causing the problem was  my use of the TLF text. Air did not like it and caused it to error and not function. I rasterized the text on export as a FLA instead, and it compiled fine. It may be my use of kearning, hanging indents, etc. I refined the text alot in inDesign, as would most designers. Maybe the samples used in testing never had hanging indents? Anyway, it works fine, as long as I rasterize. This loses the nice TLF editing function in Flash. But at least it works and the text looks good.
    Any info on this, or if anyone reproduces the error, I'd be interested in hearing.

  • Safari 3.0.4 window redraw issues

    I recently updated to 10.5.2 and Safari 3.0.4 (5523.15) on my MacBook Pro (15", 2.4GHz). Ever since the update, I'm having screen redraw issues in Safari where artifacts are left on the browser window while I attempt to scroll vertically through a web page.
    After playing around, I have discovered that if I use the vertical scrollbar, everything works properly. But if I use the touchpad scrolling (ie. via dragging two fingers on the touchpad), the window scrolls but it does not redraw properly leaving multiple copies of sentences smearing into each other making the page unreadable. The only way to clear is to use the scrollbar to scroll up and down and force the browser to redraw those portions of the window.
    Has anyone else seen this issue and know of any work arounds. Up until this point, I have gotten very used to using the touchpad scrolling and it worked fine until the 10.5.2 update after which I'm getting this smearing if I scroll using the touchpad. =(

    I had the same problem not only in Safari but in Finder as well. Serious it was too. It appeared after installing the 10.5.2 update. I got the advise from my local Mac dealer to reset the System Management Controller (SMC). I did as he said and now it works just fine

  • IMac 27"  -Photoshop CS3/CS4 redraw issues-  anyone else?

    Hello Forum,
    I am a pro photographer.
    I do have the new 27", 3.06Gh, with 10.6.2.1
    When I start up CS3 or CS4, open a picture at 100%,
    and scroll within it, the borders show the "chess" pattern, and I have redraw issues.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank You

    OK, sorry I didn´t follow this thread the last weeks.
    This has to change now
    I´m on 10.4.3.
    It didn´t bring ANY improvement.
    I have all updates installed, all firmware upgrades.
    My videocard is the Radeon HD 4670.
    Screen redraw is an absolute pain.
    For example, if I have a lasso istalled, or work on a layer I see no refresh, or lagged, sometimes the picture reverts to a previous state, but only in displaying the data.Once I zoom in, I can force a correct display.

  • Menu redraw issues

    Lately, I'm having redraw issues with menus that seem to apear at random. To demonstrate:

    This issue is due to the bootmgr file, we cannot use the bootmgr file of Windows 7 to find the Windows 8 Operating System files.

    The Windows 8 bootmgr partially loads Windows 8 before offering the boot menu.  By choosing Windows 7, the system must do a reboot.  Using the Windows 7 bootmgr, no reboot is required.

  • Strange UC560 crashing issue

    Hello Group!
    I've put in a new UC560 in our office to serve as our phone system as well as a living demo unit for clients.  I'm having a very strange issue that I wanted to float out by the group here and see if anyone else is getting the same issues.
    Last night I moved our trunks (a combination of FXO B1 lines and SIP from a ITSP) over to the UC560 and twice today the system has completely "frozen".  All phones drop off, can't ping the UC560 on either the WAN or any LAN IP addresses.  Connecting via Console I get no responce at all.
    My only option in these cases has been a power cycle of the unit.  When it comes back up, everything starts working agian.
    There is no crash file in the flash,  and a show ver is telling me Last reload type: Normal Reload.
    I'm running the software uc500-advipservicesk9-mz.151-2.T4
    99.9% of this was configured via CCA 3.1.1, the only adjustments made at the CLI level have been one translation group edit, and a couple access list adjustments for the ACL attached to the WAN port (Gi0/0)
    We've already RMA'd the 560 once due to crash/reloads while it was being tested on the bench.  The replacement unit wasn't having any issues or lock ups while sitting on the bench after being configured.  It only stated doing this once in production with calls going through it.
    One extra note...it apears I can make this also lock up at any time by performing the "backup" operation in CCA.  Each time I have attempted this, the system will go unresponcive as I described above.
    I can manually tftp off the configuration without an issue...have not attemoted a manual fto backup of the CUE module yet...

  • InDesign 5.5: Strange Printing Transparency Issues

    Hi guys, long time reader, first time poster. This forum has helped with a lot of problems, so thanks, and hopefully you can help with this one.
    I'm working on a multiple-spread page for a client that is giving me some strange issues when it's printed. The document has an image as a background for the entire page, and then a black box over the image with some text on top of it. For some reason, the black box with text is letting the image underneath show through, almost as if the box is 99% transparent or something. I've checked each box individually, and there's nothing in the transparency/attributes boxes. I'm not sure how, exactly, to solve this issue -- is there some sort of universal transparent image setting (for instance, set black to 99% opacity always or something similar)?. It's the only thing I can think of.
    InDesign CS5.5, OSX Lion. The files are a combination of TIFF and JPG images, and I get the same issue no matter what image format is underneath.
    Any feedback is welcome here.

    No problem, Peter. I've included a few shots from various pages (the problem stems to all black boxes placed over images over the 64 page document) on the links below.

    The third one is the page that I took the picture of the printout with my phone.
    I've tried this on an offset press and a digital press; with 'knockout group' ticked and not. For the life of me, I can't understand why the black is still overprinting on the image when it shouldn't be.
