hansie, 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/
I have the exact same problem as hansie describes. I am trying to put Trusty
(14.04 LTS, 32 bit version) on a Toshiba Satellite A215-S4697 with an AMD
Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core processor, 1024 DDR2 SDRAM--same laptop as hansie.
There is no flickering/blinking on the original download of Trusty wi
ralphl, it will help immensely if you filed a new report via a terminal:
ubuntu-bug xorg
Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes
button for attaching additional debugging information.

Based on hansie's research, finding that linux kernel 3.19 did not
flicker/blink, I installed kernel 3.19 into Ubuntu 14.04. I followed the
instructions at these sites:

SDRAM
further:
1. installed mint 17.1: same results - flickers on live dvd as well as
installed
2. re-installed (k)ubuntu 14.04: systems did not flicker
3. updated (k)ubuntu 14.04 to (k)ubuntu 14.04.1: systems returned
1. the same still holds for all ubuntu 14.04.2 - and all of its derivatives2.
the flickering does not exist in the very first - and original - kernel of
ubuntu 14.043. the flickering does not exist in 'linux mint 17.0' - since
'mint' does not change kernels, the way ubuntu does
On Monday
1. i installed a brandnew 'crucial ssd' on this 'toshiba satelite A215-S4697'

2. first distro installed was 'zorin 9 lite'3. the original installation did
not flicker: kernel 3.13.32 (??)4. the updated kernel version flickered badly:
