[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44823] Segfault when using HD Graphics 6000 on Fedora 21

[Michael Godfrey]

Follow-up Comment #21, bug #44823 (project octave):

I have taken a quick look at the state of X11, Wayland,
and some problem reports especially for Fedora 24.
The shortrun picture is pretty bleak. Quite a few
Matlab users are complaining about X11-related problems,
and this will get worse as users upgrade to Fedora 24.
In the meantime there is considerable work going on to
complete Wayland to the point that it can replace X11.
Elements of Wayland automatically install when Fc24 is
installed.

So, I am sure that it is unrealistic to do much for the
4.2 release. The only change that makes sense is the
set("visibility","off") for printing. It may be that this
is a good idea in any case. Executing the print code with
visibility off surely uses less resources. Is there any
negative effect?
