Graphics corruption when using Chrome Remote Desktop on samus

Project Member Reported by jamescook@chromium.org, Apr 29 2016

Issue description

Google Chrome	50.0.2661.87 (Official Build) beta (64-bit)
Revision	0
Platform	7978.62.0 (Official Build) beta-channel samus
Blink	537.36 (@0)
JavaScript	V8 5.0.71.33
Flash	21.0.0.216-r2
User Agent	Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS x86_64 7978.62.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.87 Safari/537.36

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Use Ctrl-Shift-minus to increase screen resolution to 1600x1062
(2) Run Chrome Remote Desktop in a maximized window
(3) Use it for a while. In particular, drag remote windows around

Eventually you'll get into a state like the first screenshot. Sometimes the corruption extends into the window caption area (outside the remote desktop area).

As in the second screenshot, sometimes the corruption appears on top of other windows -- see the green rectangle over the omnibox (this was with CRD minimized). Sometimes the corrupted area blinks.  I've also seen grey rectangles (maybe 8x128 pixels) on the new tab page.

I'm not sure if this is a CRD problem or a compositor/graphics problem, but I suspect the latter.

wez, are you still on CRD? marcheu, any ideas here?

+oshima, just in case there's some screen zooming issue

Actually, I still have problems even when CRD isn't running. See pink rectangle in bottom right in this screenshot. Note from shelf that no apps are running and chrome has no tabs open.

My first thought was that this looks like a VP8 decoder barf - but IIUC you're seeing this without Chromoting involved at all, according to #1?
Yes, in #1 I induced the problem by running CRD, but some corruption persisted even after I quit it.

The magic combination seems to be:
* Change screen resolution
* Run CRD
* Do something on the remote side that animates/moves a bunch of pixels

Unfortunately I need to do all 3 of those things. :-(

jamescook@ -- can you provide some details on your CRD setup.

- are you using your corp workstation to serve CRD? are you prompted to set up a 6-digit pin?

- is your samus corp enrolled and are you prompted to enter the same 6-digit pin?

I keep getting the message that the "Access Code is invalid" even though I have corp login and gnubby working on both machines.
Yes, I'm using my corp Goobuntu workstation.

I set up a 6-digit PIN a long time ago. I told the CRD app to remember it, so it doesn't prompt me anymore.

My samus is corp enrolled.

I can try to repro it at my desk tomorrow if you like.

Sorry; de-duped the wrong way round. I think this should be the master bug, since it doesn't seem to be Chromoting-specific.

Does this still happen? Sorry I haven't looked at this lately
Status: WontFix (was: Unconfirmed)
I have not noticed this recently.

I'm no longer able to reproduce this on Samus running:

Version 55.0.2883.105 (64-bit)
Platform 8872.76.0 (Official Build) stable-channel samus
ARC Version 3617689
Firmware Google_Samus.6300.174.0

This was still a problem last month but as of today I'm not seeing any
issues.

Happily going back to 1600x1062 resolution!
