Graphics not right after updating

[genebean]

How did you upgrade to 21.10? (Fresh install / Upgrade)

Was on beta, ran apt full-upgrade, then ran updates from pop shop, and also tried refresh is after letting the image update.

Issue/Bug Description:

the mostly white background and white box started after the full-upgrade. Nothing changed with additional updating.

Expected behavior:

No giant white areas.

Other Notes:

Other apps can open and look right.

Whoa, that's a new one. Do the big white blocks persist between reboots? I'm assuming that's an integrated Intel graphics machine?

[genebean]

They do persist. I am pretty sure this one has the Intel + AMD Radeon R9 M370X. https://support.apple.com/kb/SP719?locale=en_US is where I got the model from. I can double check the exact build a little later.

I decided to try reinstalling from USB on this machine and even the live environment has the problem with the non-graphics drive installer.

lspci says the video card is “[AMD/ATI] Venus XT [Radeon HD 8870M / R9 M270X/M370X] (rev 83).

I’ll try with the AMD installer next

Oh wait… there is int an AMD installer, just an nvidia one… guess this is a legit bug then

Did this ever get sloved for you? If so, what was the solution?
I just installed Pop!_OS on my 2015 Macbook Pro and I'm having the same white box graphical issues too. I've got a white box on my background, pop shop has the same white box on the graphic, firefox menus get white boxes on them that move around when I mouse over them, images on google when clicking and opening the higher res ones have white boxes and finally also Youtube videos over 720p.

So far all I've worked out is high resolution images and video cause the issue, lowering video quality to 720p fixes it as well as using a low res background image but only that that one issue i.e: 720p video doesn't have the issue but the white boxes are present on firefox menus etc. When plugging in the usb with the OS on I also get a white background around the installer GUI instead of the Pop wallpaper.
