An update after more comments on the launchpad bug, it seems to be affecting a great deal of other laptops all containing the 8086:2a42 device and not just lenovo ones. Does this also occur in 2.6.34? I've never seen this on my x200, but I don't discount the possibility of an FBC bug as the lp reports indicate... Come to think of it, I haven't see the flicker on my x201s for a couple of months... And the reporters have gone silent. I guess this one is fixed. As most users have been following the Launchpad bug tracking system, we did not see your last message. Obviously if you look at the Launchpad bug, reporters are not silent. The bug is still here, and unless something has been done, this is not solved. I'm just changing the status back to open just to be sure that someone will pass by here. If a change that actually solved the problem has been done (but not propagated yet to my Ubuntu installation), pardon me for my bold change. But I think this need clarification. Hi, I can confirm it's not yet fixed. I was able to reproduce it with 2.6.32, 2.6.34, 2.6.35 and 2.6.36 in Debian. The BTS entry contains more informations about my setup (it's a Dell Vostro 1014, 8086:2a42): http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580601 Please let me know of any information I could provide to help squash this bug. Thanks, I've not seen this on my x201s in the last year... However, I've applied a fix first spotted for Ironlake to the g4x watermark on drm-intel-next: commit 417ae1476de3ae9689a374d70565f41b3474641e Author: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Date: Wed Jan 19 15:04:42 2011 +0000 drm/i915: Include TLB miss latency in g4x watermark computations Reports of FIFO underruns are still persisting on gm45.

Whatever got into 2.6.37 (intentionally or not) seems to have fix it. :-) I can still reproduce it on 2.6.36 consistently. Regards, Great, thanks for the update. |
