To be clear:
Ramzi, if we experience this with 178.13 and above in the 1.22 rc, do you want us to vote/comment on it here, or elsewhere? Those of us experiencing this (or in any case a symptomatically identical) issue on recent drivers would benefit from knowing where to focus our attention. Sorry, yes! Thanks Laila- to be clear, if you continue to experience this behavior in the 1.22 RC, even with 178,13, please comment here to help us investigate some other unknown cause of this buggy rendering in the viewer.
As of this morning, 16 Feb, 7:30 SLT, I have noticed a change in what I am seeing. Sleeves still have the chevron appearance but are not waving anymore. The blocky join to the avatar mesh is gone, mostly. Pants seem to be totally normal. Posting new pictures.
I had an update from HP yesterday. Its contents I do not know. My graphics driver information is unchanged: [Display] [Components] nvCplUIR.dll 1.5.700.55 NVIDIA Control Panel I am running a new Release Candidate. What muddies the waters is I have seen the abnormal behavior (the reported bug) since I downloaded that update, but I am not seeing it today.

The textures are not stuck as flared. They adjust to flared or close without problem. It's just when they are flared they display with the chevron appearance, blocky, and wavy.
Or did until this morning. Hate being so verbose, but I need to update. This morning, Feb 17, things are waving again.
An update. Yesterday I found that NVIDIA had posted a new driver for my card. It is downloaded and installed. I have verified that I am still experiencing the bug. The waviness is due to a preferences>graphics setting, avatar cloth. I have deselected it and the waviness in the belled pants and sleeves is gone.

Thank you for your feedback Lisa : ) Marking as Fixed, please reopen if you see this issue again.
I have just encountered this once more in the 1.22 release viewer.

I'll upgrade later tonight and come back to verify this. Issue is still very much unresolved. Workarounds don't work. While it isn't an empirical observation, I do have this to say: Also note that when this happens, the pants length as seen in edit appearance is always set to maximum. My pants are not normally set to this length. The ones I currently am wearing which have this issue are normally a length of 94, but display as 100. I have not changed this value myself. As of the 1.23 release viewer and the most current Nvidia drivers (downloaded them this week) this behavior seems to have significantly worsened.
I have now had 3 repeat instances of this effect being applied consistently to whatever clothing object is being worn on the pants layer upon logging in. Switching to different pants resolves the issue, but all pants which have been afftected by this during past login sessions seem to have retained their corrupted mesh. Not only is this issue not resolved, by my experience is indicating that the issue is worsening. Issue is still happening. I had a curious variant today and am posting photos of the behavior.
1) Make new pants. Apply Texture. 11) Take pants off Settings for pants are all 100% with 0 Flare and 0 Looseness 0 Environment Info: Second Life 1.23.5 (136262) Oct 14 2009 12:08:26 (Second Life Release) Built with MSVC version 1400 You are at 146496.0, 299638.4, 502.2 in The Refuge located at sim32.agni.lindenlab.com (216.82.8.107:13001) CPU: Intel Core 2 Series Processor (2399 MHz) libcurl Version: libcurl/7.18.1 OpenSSL/0.9.8j zlib/1.2.3 Verified graphics driver is most recent before I wrote this report.

Bug
Reopened
Major
Leg/sleeve clothing layer meshes, when set as flared/loose, sometimes display blocky/wavy/chevron appearance
VWR-9358, since it can be seen with Nvidia driver 175.56 and not just with 178.13 and above.Also, Residents who have Nvidia drivers 178.13 who still experience this behavior may be suffering this bug too, now that
VWR-9358resolves the first cause of this type of behavior.
