thx!!! I've updated my BIOS. So far I've had a few crashes ... but it wasn't clear if it's not due to my new mt7601Usta patched wifi-driver ... usb wifi stick ...
If I see the patterned screen with full freeze again I'll send another bug report ... If not, I'll give it a few days and change the bug-report status (if I don't forget) ... thx, J +--[ RSA 2048]----+ | . | | . . o | | . o + | | . = . | | S = E o| | o + * o.| | o @ + | | + * | | ... | +-----------------+ +------------------+ |tn?bo | |i-?* | |+c1 | |=? | |f # ## | | # # | | # ## | | # # # | | ## ## | +------------------+ jsstyle.github.com 2015-11-01 11:53 GMT-04:00 Christopher M.

The OS driver is the better choice, as it crashes about twice a day and that's it ... Crashes = strange patterns filling the screen plus X crashing (Keyboard combinations don't have effect anymore I think ... tried to quit my code editor with alt+f4 which should have closed all sourcefiles I was working on, still some of them were scrambled after reboot) The proprietary driver works well for some time, then brings on all kinds of artifacts, displaying old (buffered) parts of windows where they aren't etc., for example on mouse scrolling ... unusable really The Troubleshooting guide says something to check and by trial n error fix this in the BIOS by trying all AGP APERTURE SIZE settings ... well, I ain't got no AGP, I got the new stuff (ahemmm ... forget the name ...) Also, I read it doesn't work with the new kernel of Ubuntu Wily ... so I guess I'm in luck I switched back in time.
