chromebook_trogdor: (and other snapdragon devices) problem: chrome and electron apps have graphics glitches

Open hexdump0815 opened this issue 3 months ago • 4 comments

snapdragon based systems (i.e. everything having a adreno gpu handled by the freedreno gpu driver) like trogdor chromebooks and others have graphics glitches when displaying the chrome or chromium browsers or electron apps like discussed here: https://github.com/velvet-os/imagebuilder/issues/182#issuecomment-3136478480 (@thenameisluk - i remember you also postate a screenshot of vs code somewhere, but could not find that comment - if you have the link at hand it would be good to add it as a comment here too for reference)

to work around that problem this pr has been added for future images: https://github.com/velvet-os/imagebuilder/pull/378

please use this gh issue to report further affected apps, other workarounds and everything else around this problem

it looks like chromium 142 is supposed to contain a fix for the angle problem: https://oftc.catirclogs.org/aarch64-laptops/2025-10-29#34753584

The newest chromium, Siyuan Note, Obsidian will come up with these issue, I haven't updated my VScode and I won't do that
