[Bug 1771204] Re: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04
ad 1) When I boot the old kernel, the lines start to appear. They stay as long as I run the old kernel. When I boot the new kernel, they are there at the beginning and then slowly fade away and never come again. ad 2)3) Even if the cause was different, the reported behavior is the same. Anyway, its fixed now.

[Bug 1771204] Re: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04
Yes, but thats a onetime thing. The bug somehow "burns" into the system, and it needs time to "heal". Now, when I start the machine, I don't have any issues. Thats why I called it weird, I've never seen something like this. See the link I posted in the original report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64332 People there reported similar behaviour: "Update to the comment above: Even if the lines were not gone after the reboot with the new kernel, there are no new lines and the old ones seem to disappear one by one over time. It kindof "heals". This is a VERY strange bug, but maybe fixed after all. Just to let you all know, don't despair if the reboot does not fix the lines promptly. Shuffle around some windows and see." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771204 Title: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1771204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ad CHristopher: Maybe you read my last comment wrong? The latest kernel did fix the bug, so the bug can get closed now, in my humble opinion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771204 Title: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1771204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1771204] Re: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04
Just tested with the latest proposed kernel: It's working. Although it takes about 30 minutes after the booting with the new kernel for the lines to slowly vanish. Truly a weird bug.

Cool, I will report back as soon as the patch lands in the Ubuntu kernel if it works.

[Bug 1771204] Re: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04
Hi there, I fear that I do not have the time to do such in-depth debugging atm. As I said, I used the latest kernel with my previous 17.10 install without this problem, and it occurred with the first kernel of the 18.04 release. I know that it would be easier for you to know the specific kernel version where the digression was introduced, but maybe it would be possible to have a look at the old bug here (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64332) and take a look at the specific files which got patched back then to find the digression. I'm just a php coder, so my knowledge about kernel development is too limited to take a look into it myself. ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #64332 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64332 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771204 Title: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1771204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Christopher, ad 1: 17.10 ad 2: I cannot check that, sorry. My boot partition is so small (only 256mb, happened when I first installed ubuntu on this machine in 2013 for whatever reason), so i have to uninstall the older kernels immediately after updating in order to be able to install updates. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771204 Title: Horizontal lines on Samsung Laptop np900x3f after Update to 18.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1771204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
