Michael Opdenacker, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Ray, I found that all releases of the Ubuntu mainline kernel after linux-image-2.6.36-999-generic_2.6.36-999.201010211341_amd64.deb broke quite a lot of things and I stopped looking after that. I think that after 20101021 we may have been looking at 2.6.37 prototype ... But I have found, and feel guilty for not telling anyone, that suspending (and resuming) always stops the flickering.

My tests of linux-image-2.6.36-997-generic_2.6.36-997.201011120905_i386 on a Dell E4310 suggest new problems have been introduced. This kernel causes the display (all virtual terminal) to display blank. From what I can tell, keyboard input works fine, but there's no display, but the backlight does come on.

OK, flickering problem seems to be fixed in rc6 kernel. I am using the mainline 2.6.36 dated 201010021408 from Ubuntu and it no longer flickers ! (still fails to give the internal screen a name, calls it (null)1 and still fails to set, automaticly, the correct screen resolution for my external HP LA2405wg screen but thats easy to deal with !)

Now, this just could be the same or related to bug #585651. It was marked as resolved a couple of weeks ago but I dropped a note there suggesting, "maybe not". Steve Conklin kindly pointed out that was not enough to reopen, better to create a new bug report. Looking around I found this one. In summary, all newish kernels have this problem with a laptop that uses the eDP display. Not a problem with external screen. I am using a beta Maverick and Ubuntu's mainline (2.6.26) kernel dated 201009281108. To save people the effort, while the flickering or flashing is not present in an earlier kernel (such as what you will find in U9.04) the hardware is so unfamiliar to that old kernel other things like external displays don't work. I mostly go from my desk at work to my desk at home and use an external display at both so the occasional flickering (when using laptop screen) is acceptable. Other observations that might be interesting - 1. xrandr has problems understanding the internal screen but it does get setting right. Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 960, maximum 8192 x 8192 (null)1 connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 260mm x 160mm 1280x800 60.0*+ 40.3 Note the (null)1 name. 2. xrandr has problems setting preferred mode on my HP Compaq LA2405wg screen, notes that 1920x1200 is preferred mode but still selects 1280x960. Switches over when asked to do so. On the other hand, works fine on my Acer screen at home. 3. xrandr, with any screen, blanks the screen momentarily as usual but surprisingly does so again about six seconds later. I have not seen that before...

I would like to add that this also happens on a fully updated maverick system with linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic. I've got a HP Elitebook 2540p and I've tried all different kind of kernels (also from the mainline) with only one success (i.e., without the flashing issue) so far: linux- image-2.6.35-020635rc6-generic.
