closing the bug since the original reporter can't debug this anymore

if you still have this issue with current yak, make sure you have
xdiagnose installed and run 'ubuntu-bug xorg-server'

2016-08-02 Thread kenjo
well what settings is there ?? I have no xorg.conf I also deleted the
.drirc file. still same.

Now I have a bit of a hard time testing as I switched over to a AMD R9
card and installed amdgpu-pro package. Not sure I can just switch back
to intel now and still have a working system.

I know it did not work to switch back when I had a nvida card without
reinstalling a lot of packages for intel again. Not sure what the
procedure is for switching amd to intel.

gfx on linux sure sucks compared to windows10 :(

yes it's the modsetting module that has the problem. should have
mentioned that the log was from after I changed back to old drive.

So the issue is when I run without any xorg.conf file and get the
default. when I create a xorg.conf and load the intel driver it works.
well I have other issues but this particular one is not present.

But this is so bad it basically is unusable.

I assume you were running with modesetting and not intel, since the logs
are with intel

anyway, I tried it on Broadwell and it doesn't show anything like your
google photo video. Some frames do show more red/green but there's no
tearing

Wouldn't it be better to report such things to the upstream developers

** Description changed:

  with the change away from the intel driver to modeset I get a lot of
  tearing.
  
  This video shows the problem.
  
  https://goo.gl/photos/rXNBQ5KR6ZMnhazB9
  And the video capture is done in 240fps so its possible to see what is 
happening more clearly.
  
  The test video itself is just a short test video with alternating
  red/green pictures in 60Hz.
  
  What you should see is a somewhat flickering screen but the color should
  be a consistent orange hue.
  
  there should be no pulsing of colors that is more green then back to
  more red and so on then something is wrong.
  
- I have attached the video. if you are uncertain how it should look try
- to play it directly on a TV. that is with the TV own player not with a
- computer as that has a lot higher probability of not having any issues
- with vsync and frame updates.

I am asking because the same bug exists on Haswell in Arch Linux with
