Comment 174 for bug 1010794

I'm pleased to report that recent changes to the Nouveau driver (I'm currently running git revision ace77b6) reduce the display corruption with cairo 1.12 to the point where the machine is usable again. However, it is not perfect: there are still some instances of corruption (for instance, large JPEGs are corrupted when downscaled to fit on the screen by Firefox) and the X server has crashed on me several times since I upgraded (seems to be an unrelated problem to do with suspend/resume).
