[Bug 351291] Re: [Radeon X1200/X1250/X1270/X1300 Mobility] screen flickers when CPU is at low frequency
I just tried the development drivers from today. No flickering on my 6715b (Same model as the bug-issuer). Also, when compiz is on, the average Xorg cpu usage is now 1-5%, compared to a constant >15% on Ibex.

[Bug 351291] Re: [Radeon X1200/X1250/X1270/X1300 Mobility] screen flickers when CPU is at low frequency
I tried fiddling with the cpu freq settings on my machine and it seems like there is less flickering at higher frequencies. However, I could only set the frequency of my cpu down to 1.0GHz and as high as 2.0GHz. While there was less flickering at 2.0GHz there was still some and it's hard to quantify how much less than at 1.0GHz. I haven't tried any of the more bleeding-edge drivers yet. -- [Radeon X1200/X1250/X1270/X1300 Mobility] screen flickers when CPU is at low frequency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/351291 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
