Hey Guys, I've asked around and the consensus is that the patch "still needs work" but I'm not sure what that work might be.
What other things are needed for this to get included? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1239186 Title: [Lenovo ThinkPad X220] External screens shut off randomly Status in X.org xf86-video-intel: In Progress Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I've been trying to figure out what's going on with my external display port screens with no luck....but I think I'm getting closer to the right direction. I upgraded to the latest 13.10 build and turned on DRM debugging with: # /etc/modprobe.d/drm.conf # We are turning on debug information here options drm debug=0xe In doing so my logs lit up with lots of graphics activity. However the two events that actually had some meaning in terms of a pain point where lines like this: Oct 12 11:22:02 rnavarro-thinkpad kernel: [ 673.201706] [drm:ironlake_irq_handler], Pipe B FIFO underrun Oct 12 11:22:02 rnavarro-thinkpad kernel: [ 673.201719] [drm:cpt_serr_int_handler], PCH transcoder B FIFO underrun and Oct 12 11:22:31 rnavarro-thinkpad kernel: [ 702.411812] [drm:ironlake_irq_handler], Pipe A FIFO underrun I noticed that right before either one of my monitors would blank and shut off, this message would be emitted in my kern.log I think there was some stuff added upstream to detect this, as noted here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2013-July/029882.html But i'm not sure what's causing it, much less how to fix it. What other information can I give that would help debug?
