Does it also happen if you don't enable page flipping? (In reply to comment #1) > Does it also happen if you don't enable page flipping? Yes. Disable page flipping does not help. If not specifying any AGP related options and/or
Option "DisplayPriority" "HIGH"
doesn't help either, please attach the full X server config and log files.

You have tried not setting Option "AGPMode" or Option "AGPFastWrite", haven't you? Also, does running in depth 16 instead of 24 make a difference? Anyway, the fact that the same DRI snapshot seems to work fine with a different distro got me thinking... there have been reports of some versions of xscreensaver causing display flicker on some machines. Although Kubuntu doesn't use xscreensaver AFAIK, maybe this could give you some ideas for other things to try, such as disabling the screensaver.

I tried all these today and the problem never completely dispears. I am wondering whether this problem has something todo with the speedstep of Pentinum M CPU somehow. I notices that when playing quake 3 demo, if I keep standing, everything is fine. But when I begin to move faster and firing the guns, the wrong scanning lines begin to appear. If I exit the game, the screen will return to normal. It may take several seconds for the screen to fall back to normal. Anything that helps others understand better exactly what the problem looks like might be helpful... (In reply to comment #8) > Anything that helps others understand better exactly what the problem looks like > might be helpful... A photo or video of the display with the problem in action would be helpful.

I sent my computer twice to Sony to fix it but it didn't help. Of course, since I need to put the original hard disk with Windows on it so that Sony accept to repair it, they can not see the problem with OpenGL on X11... :-/ It looks like in plain-old-mode X11, the issue happens rather with a high temperature. In OpenGL mode, the issue is quite more often here... I've put a sample on http://enstb.org/~keryell/bug_radeon/dsc02013.jpg with bzflag. There is a little blurr related to the 1/13s shutter speed but you can get the idea... :-/ So, is it a hardware or software issue? Or a hardware issue triggered with a special X11 usage? Do you still have this issue with recent distribution & KMS ? gnulinuxfun@yahoo.com, Kubuntu 5.10 reached EOL on April 13, 2007. For more on this, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases . If this is reproducible in a supported release, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with Ubuntu by ensuring you have the package xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information running the following from a terminal: ubuntu-bug xorg Also, please feel free to subscribe me to it.

I am runing the DRI snapshot on a IBM T42 with Radeon Mobility 7500 graphic card. The distribution is Kubuntu 5.10. When I run a 3D application, such as glxgears, quake3 demo or planetpenguin-racer, after a shor time, the screen looks like running in a wrong refreshing rate. I am not sure whether it is really running in a wrong refreshing rate. It seems that somes of the horizontal lines are not scanning from the 'zero point', causing the screen display 'shaking'. I use driconf to set to 'Always synchronize with vertical refresh'. This reduces the 'noise' but did not fully solve the problem. When I used Kubuntu 5.04 with the dri snapshot, everything works fine. But aftergrading to 5.10, the dri never works properly.
