There is a flickering bug fixed by the mesa 8.0.3 release. Check the bug report and see if you think it may be the same issue:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44701 If it is (and perhaps even if it isn't), it may be worthwhile to test out the 8.0.3 release. I've set up a PPA with this release for testing: https://launchpad.net/~bryce/+archive/mesa-803 Install that PPA, reboot, and give a go at reproducing the flickering. If we can confirm 8.0.3 fixes the bug we may be able to get it SRU'd for precise. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #44701 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44701 ** Changed in: mesa (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/955277 Title: screen flickering with RevengeOfTheTitans To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mesa/+bug/955277/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
