Public bug reported:
Hi:
I have a weird problem where on my screen appear random white horizontal
stripes. I could describe them as a noise but it is very noticeable when
I read /dev/random file.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable kde composer with vsycn enabled (any method will do).
2. Open some app which has black background.
3. Execute the following: dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1000000
oflag=sync
Results:
Random white horizontal stripes on the screen appear. Life time of every stripe
is less 1s.
** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
