Reported as affecting oneiric on dupe bug #853838. Several kernel patches are discussed on bug #38750, and while they're confirmed fixes it appears there is concern of a possible regression they cause, which is why they're not yet upstream.
I'm guessing the best patch is this one: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jbarnes/linux/commit/?h=fix-pch-refclk&id=99eb6a01e5ac6cf28aadc64e6ff346939874dfd2 It's hosted in this tree currently: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jbarnes/linux?h=fix-pch-refclk Once this patch is officially upstream it would be worthwhile to backport it to oneiric and natty. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Oneiric) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Oneiric) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Oneiric) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Oneiric) Milestone: None => oneiric-updates ** Tags added: kernel-handoff-graphics kernel-needs-review oneiric -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/614238 Title: Intel Core i3 External Monitor Wavy Output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/614238/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
