Everything after 2.6.35-020635rc6 has the screen flashing problem, including 2.6.36-rc2. I've filed a careful bug report upstream with the Intel folks, see: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29821 - Jim ** Bug watch added: freedesktop.org Bugzilla #29821 http://bugs

Maverick Alpha 3 installed on my HP 2540p; but the screen flashes intermittently at 1-2HZ, more than a bit annoying Same after upgrading to today's packages. So things are still busted, even if not as catastrophically as before. Any hope? -- [LUCID] Cannot install on eDP laptops such as HP

It isn't clear yet if this is the same bug or not; many things could cause a panel not to work. The HP Elitebook 2540p I have has an eDP internal panel, which Ajax hadn't seen in the wild before at all. The IBM x201 has been out a number of months longer, so it may have an LVDS panel. Until/unle

Actually, only one of the two patches appears to be necessary; the Intel developer is in China, and should be waking up around now. The second patch will force higher bandwidth than necessary operation (taking power). So let's wait and see what ykzhao says in response to the test that Dick Marinu

Bryce, A cursory test showed rotation working on the Dell Latitude XT with the 10.04 release. The RS600 in the Dell does not work with KMS; at least I'm back to where I was in Beta 1, and was able to install, but also with working rotation. I'll probably give it a better workout over the weekend

Bryce, When I tried Beta 1 on this machine, I was able to install with kms disabled only. Didn't think to try rotation. Beta 2 wouldn't even install either ums or kms. I haven't tried to install the final release. I might or might not be able to try to do that next week (I'm travelling, and do
