Title:
  Monitor blinks when connected through HDMI

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  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)
