Bug#627568: [xserver-xorg-video-nouveau] Dual head problem: Flicker on 2nd monitor using GeForce 8500 GT

The 1st monitor runs like a dream - no problem at all :-) Unfortunately the 2nd has a glitch: The screen flickers in a most annoying way, every few seconds. I use this script to configure my set-up: #! /bin/sh xrandr --newmode 1280x1024 159.50 1280 1376 1512 1744 1024 1027 1034 1078 -hsync +vsync xrandr --addmode DVI-I-1 1280x1024 xrandr --output DVI-I-1 --mode 1280x1024 --left-of VGA-1 I had to add a modeline as the EEID is not detected properly on the 2nd monitor (DVI-I-1) I think this is the reason for the flickering. Do you also see it if you connect only the DVI monitor? This results in the set-up I require, but the monitor blinks every few seconds. I have also noticed that the GUI freezes for the fraction of a second that the monitor blinks, even on the primary monitor i.e. the mouse movement will halt etc. Try booting with drm_kms_helper.poll=0 kernel parameter.

Hi, Sami Liedes slie...@cc.hut.fi (20/05/2011): Perhaps this is a bug in xserver-xorg-video-intel after all? trying what happens with upstream's master merged into the debian-unstable branch of our repository [1] might be a good idea. If that still fails, opening a bug upstream (xorg, Driver/intel) should get you an answer: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ You could also check what happens with mesa master too: /usr/share/doc/xorg/howto/build-mesa.* http://pkg-xorg.alioth.debian.org/howto/build-mesa.html [1] Mraw, KiBi. 1. Alioth's being migrated, but I can provide you with an up-to-date debian repository for xxv-intel if you feel like it; just ask through a private mail if you need that.

Bug#576427: versioning mix-up
Hi, On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 11:46:14AM -0400, Andres Cimmarusti wrote: Compiz-stable is very outdated in Debian. Upstream released version Help is always welcome. Personally I haven't been spending a great deal of time/effort on compiz because the manner in which the upstream author manages the project is *really* burdensome and it's really easy for me to lose energy/time/motivation. 0.8.8 last month 04/2011 (http://releases.compiz.org/0.8.8/) Compiz-stable is suitable to be packaged for unstable and then eventually makes its way to stable. I think the original plan was to move to the 0.9.x version, and we started that with uploads to experimental a couple months back. however, the software proved to be less than super stable (crashy, leaking memory, etc), so it hasn't been transitioned into unstable. unfortunately i made the mistake of doing the experimental-targeted work in the unstable branch, thinking it'd be a quick transition, and now we're stuck in a kind of in-between state unsure of what the next upload to unstable will be. Even compiz-unstable (0.9.x) is already outdated. Version 0.9.4 is already available (http://releases.compiz.org/0.9.4/) This one is suitable for experimental. and it's already there. the versions are all messed up because the upstream author never took the time to push out the proper tags, but I believe everything is approximately 0.9.4. if you'd like to help with updating the compiz packages, you're more than welcome to join up :) sean -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#627568: [xserver-xorg-video-nouveau] Dual head problem: Flicker on 2nd monitor using GeForce 8500 GT
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On 22/05/11 07:06, Sven Joachim wrote: I had to add a modeline as the EEID is not detected properly on the 2nd monitor (DVI-I-1) I think this is the reason for the flickering. Do you also see it if you connect only the DVI monitor? Yes, if the primary monitor is disconnected, leaving only the 2nd one the blinking was still present. The 2nd monitor is a fairly old IIyama Vision Master Pro 452. It always used to be a bit funny with the old nv driver, although I have to say, the Nvidia proprietary driver never gave a problem with this old monitor. On the other hand, using xrandr is much more configurable and sensible than Nvidia's silly twinview setup. ;-) Removing the Nvidia proprietary driver has left my system completely free of non-free and contrib packages! Try booting with drm_kms_helper.poll=0 kernel parameter. That does it! Well done: No more flicker! In case any readers are not familiar with grub2 I edited: /etc/default/grub thus: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet drm_kms_helper.poll=0 and ran (as root) update-grub2 then rebooted.
