Public bug reported: I have 2 monitors, (connections: VGA, HDMI). When 1 monitor (LG IPS237) is using HDMI - it can blink for 5-10 mins from reboot (1 second off, 1 second on) If both monitors are connected using VGA - there is no blinking, but I had strange glitches (that's why I used HDMI) And the fact that it is blinking with this connection type is really f...ing annoying.
PS: It only blinks when in Nvidia X Server Settings this monitor is set as "primary" (which is in my case, and I want this setting to stay) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-27.50-generic 3.13.11 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-27-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0' .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 331.38 Wed Jan 8 19:32:30 PST 2014 GCC version: gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,vpswitch,snap,mousepoll,resize,place,move,wall,grid,regex,imgpng,session,gnomecompat,animation,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,workarounds,scale,expo,ezoom,unityshell] CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu May 29 16:16:03 2014 DistUpgraded: 2014-04-18 05:38:25,648 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: trusty DistroVariant: ubuntu EcryptfsInUse: Yes ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti] [10de:1200] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
