Issue description
Sometimes the textures of of some menu elements disappear (see attached screenshots).

As some of the events that cause this bug are not something AL will even know about, this is likely to be a bug in the AMD binary driver - but I want to investigate further before assigning blame.

Curiously, it's always the same textures that go missing and it only happens in the menu. (well, those textures are not used in-game)

This bug report is mostly a reminder for myself to look into this, but if anyone can reproduce the issue with a configuration that is not Linux + KDE + AMD binary drivers, please add a comment to help me track this down.

The textures usually re-appear after toggling fullscreen/windowed mode.
Steps to reproduce this issue
Here are a few actions that can trigger this:

  • Changing between fullscreen and windowed mode while compositing is active
  • A window appearing over the fullscreen arx window (both with and without compositing)
  • Turning compositing on or off while arx is running


None of these event cause the bug every time though.

Hm, seems like we get resize events when compositing is enabled/disabled so this might yet be a bug in arx.
