Hi, Sorry for the late reply After I installed the 2.6.38-4 the issue is fixed and 2.6.38-5 is also stable. thank you very much.

Re: [Bug 720303] Re: system flickrs from the begning
Thankyou for replying to this report. Well I had to manually submit a bug report as it doesnt generate one. Here's a picture of what it looks like. Also I would like to mention that it works fine with kernel 2.6.38-2. I had no problems with Natty until I updated this kernel and also I have no problem login in and doing the normal things if i can guess what is on the screen. to get around it i tried fail safe graphics mode but there is not change so i have to login with the previous kernel. i will let you know the result after upgrading to 2.6.38-4 On Fri, Feb 18, 2011 at 11:06 AM, Bryce Harrington 720...@bugs.launchpad.net wrote: Hi Hussain, your bug report is really terse, not really enough info to do analysis on.

[Bug 720303] Re: system flickrs from the begning
Hi, just now we've uploaded the new -ati 6.14.0 as well as a switch of defaults from the r600 to the r600g driver. The r600g is a reimplementation of the driver using the Gallium framework, which particularly affects 3D behavior. I don't know whether this is a fix for your bug, but it would be worth retesting at this point. It will probably take some hours before the packages are built and distributed to mirrors, so could you plan tomorrow (Feb 19th) to update to latest Natty and retest your bug? If it does still occur, please upload your /var/log/Xorg.0.log from reproducing the issue, since this will now have the r600g debug log messages in it. Thanks ahead of time. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/720303 Title: system flickrs from the begning -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
