Scrolling through LO documents lets horizontal/verlitacl lines appear/disappear with some ati video cards

[Joachim Backes]

Hi F23 users,

Having problems with displaying Libreoffice documents using horizontal
or vertical lines: If scrolling through such documents, rather often the
lines disappear or appear again. Seems a displaying problem (such
printed documents show the lines always!).

I think id could be a problem with the video card:

1. VGA compatible controller:Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI]
Cedar [Radeon HD 5000/6000/7350/8350 Series]
2. xorg-x11-drv-ati-7.6.1-3.20160215gitd41fccc.fc23.x86_64

I'm not running drivers from rpmfusion.

Anybody has similar problems?

Kind regards

Joachim Backes

I've always seen this problem, for as long as I can remember using
OpenOffice/LibreOffice, and some web browsers.  It's not just thin
horizontal lines that might disappear, but a corruption of line(s) of
text until you scroll them back off screen and on, again.

Completely different from mine, I have several systems all with
different graphics cards.

I'm more suspicious of something deeper within the graphics system.
