[Bug 1479136] Re: [ubuntu 14.04.2] Artefacts in radeon driver on kernel 3.16 and upwards
I wonder if this is the same bug which I am seeing on my Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop with Radeon X1400 video. Occasionally I get white lines which are very similar to the https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nx2-Fvihzxg video posted at the beginning. The only difference is that more lines are present at screen edges and high contrast borders. Line length and the way they flicker is very similar. This problem has been present over multiple Ubuntu versions, and is still present in 64-bit Ubuntu 16.10 with kernel 4.8.0-26-generic. In the past I posted about the problem at: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2322535 Sometimes I've gotten worse corruption like how Ivan Zakharyaschev (imz) wrote "sometimes the flickering did appear as some regions (with text) displayed at another place on the screen appearing extremely quickly and transparently also at a wrong places at the top." This is more rare than the white lines, and has not happened in Ubuntu 16.10 yet. Changing video modes can start or stop corruption. So, if I have corruption, run a script which uses xrandr to change to a lower resolution and back to the native resolution. This usually works in one try but sometimes takes a few tries. The problem happens rarely enough that it's not a big deal, but a fix would be nice. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479136 Title: [ubuntu 14.04.2] Artefacts in radeon driver on kernel 3.16 and upwards To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1479136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1479136] Re: [ubuntu 14.04.2] Artefacts in radeon driver on kernel 3.16 and upwards
@Ivan: There is a slight possibility that the patch could work for you (I don't know because I don't have that hardware). You could test by installing kernel 4.7 from mainline. The probable cause of the flickering is PLL-resonance which only seems to affect LVDS and only on older GPU-chips. It is mitigated by switching off the fractional divider of the PLL when an LVDS is connected, which is exactly what the patch is doing for chips like RS780/880 (R600) and older. @everyone: The patch is in kernel 4.7 now so there is no need anymore to post your results here. Thank you all very much for what you posted thus far; It turned out to be quite helpful. If the patch is not working for you, you are probably hitting a different bug. Please commit a new bugreport in that case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479136 Title: [ubuntu 14.04.2] Artefacts in radeon driver on kernel 3.16 and upwards To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1479136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm afraid my case is different (drm:radeon_compute_pll_legacy). Perhaps, it's a matter of forcing a better modeline for the LCD, like here -- https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-984216-start-0.html . Although mostly I observed the flickering as horizontal lines/line segments, sometimes the flickering did appear as some regions (with text) displayed at another place on the screen appearing extremely quickly and transparently also at a wrong places at the top. I can try this if I get again to this machine.

also tried 3.13 kernel (trusty) with xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts- utopic: no problem it looks like it is driver-independent. it seems to be a kernel bug more than a xorg-video-driver bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479136 Title: [ubuntu 14.04.2] Artefacts in radeon driver on kernel 3.16 and upwards To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1479136/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Okay, I narrowed it down to this: Running on bare recovery console without Xorg : no problem Running on bare normal (??framebuffered??) console without Xorg: blipstorm The difference seems to me a loaded kernel driver...am I correct ?? If so, I could try out some new drivermodules or patches if you want me to.

Hi, thanks for looking into this. I just installed the meta packages xserver-xorg-lts-vivid ( --install- recommends) and linux-generic-lts-vivid and rebooted Running now: Xorg X Server version 1.17 (1:7.7+7ubuntu3-trusty1) vmlinuz-3.19.0-25-generic with options radeon.dpm=1 vt.handoff=7 the info I get from the xserver-xorg-video-radeon-lts-vivid package is: Version 1:7.5.0-1ubuntu2-trusty1 However, I still have the 'blipstorm' on my screen.
