I don't think I'll find time to work on it today, and I'll be on holiday for a week starting tomorrow. So if someone else with the same problem could step in in the meantime, that would be great.

It happens for me with 1:6.9.0-1+lenny1. At least the blackouts of the screen for about half a second, I haven't seen the flickers. I can confirm that moving a window makes the blackouts happen for sure, but they also happen from time to time otherwise. RIght, but I asked about the 6.8.191 release candidates, not 6.9.0+ :) There were changes during the release candidate series that may be related. Hence if you could test a 6.8.191 rc release, that would help me narrow down the problem. Thanks, Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Where exactly would I get the original sources? I've seen things like git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel but I'm a bit confused because of the xf86 part, I would expect xorg or similar instead.

I'm not sure if debian still has packages of the rc releases available. if not, you will have to build from source. The xf86 is a vestige of the fact that these drivers originally came from xfree86 and the API's the implement were mostly from the xfree86 days. Also, remember to backup your original /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/radeon_drv.so.
