[Bug 292761] Re: laptop screen flickers
Thanks for testing and pointing out that it's upstream. Setting to Triaged for now. Yes, we've heard from several people about problems with 8xx. I hope upstream will look into addressing the issues on these older chipsets. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged ** Summary changed: - laptop screen flickers + [i855] laptop screen flickers ** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel since upgrading from hardy to intrepid, the display on my Gateway MX6025 laptop now flickers. it is extremely noticeable in the login screens (GDM), and slightly noticeable (headache inducing...) once logged in, depending on the display brightness. lowering the brightness makes it less obvious, but still present. killing compiz made no difference. + + 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device [8086:3582] (rev 02) + Subsystem: Gateway 2000 Device [107b:0360] + there are quite a lot of error reports in the Xorg log: (EE) intel(0): tried to update DSPARB with both planes enabled!

[Bug 292761] Re: laptop screen flickers
Hi, I managed to get the new driver installed, and tried to get GDB to function. The driver is not the answer. I was unable to complete this task in linux, though I tried a couple of times. I will say that it changed somewhat, I now get a red screen as the Xserver goes down, or looses contact. So, from Windows here are my latest SystemLog, XorgLog, and KernelLogs. Please let me know if I can send something else.

[Bug 292761] Re: laptop screen flickers
[This is an automatic notice.] We'd like to forward your bug upstream, however upstream requires that you first test it against their newer driver code. To save you the effort of building the driver from source, we've built packages for the driver and its new dependencies. So you have a couple options: 1. Download and test .debs for intrepid, from: https://edge.launchpad.net/~intel-gfx-testing/+archive -or- 2. Download and test the Jaunty alpha-2 (or newer) Live CD, (which includes a beta of the new xserver 1.6 as well). See http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.04/ for ISOs Thanks ahead of time! You can simply reply to this email to report your findings. P.S., if you wish to forward your bug upstream yourself, please follow these directions to do so: http://intellinuxgraphics.org/how_to_report_bug.html -- laptop screen flickers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292761 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 292761] Re: laptop screen flickers
hmm. I'm not convinced the 'every 5 seconds' flicker is the same thing. I saw other bug reports around when I was trying to see if others had my issue (persistent flickering, almost subliminal with the brightness turned down a couple of notches), and the 'every 5/7 seconds' thing was something to do with detecting plugged in monitors - people were fixing it by disabling a service I think. try googling for 'flicker every 7 seconds'. -- laptop screen flickers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292761 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
