Public bug reported:
ubuntu version: Ubuntu 9.10 (doesn't really matter, have this bug since 8.04)
fglrx version: 2:8.681-0ubuntu1
After having read many reports about flickering when compiz is enabled
(and my problems with it) I completely uninstalled it. I also
uninstalled all xorg-video drivers except for the vesa, fb, and fglrx.
The screen will flicker sometimes, this will also make the system lag. Problem
can be observed:
- after entering my password and the desktop loading (flickers ~3 times)
- when starting totem (flickers ~1 time)
- when starting an app with wine (flickers ~10 times)
- when starting some games (tuxracer, supertux, ...; usually ~1 time)
** Affects: fglrx-installer (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
