Public bug reported:


In relation with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1405277 

As explained in the bug description, the screen flickers constantly. The
system is a Toshiba Satellite A215-s7437 running ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS. The
video card (from Toshiba's site) is an ATI Radeon X1200 128MB-319MB
dynamically allocated shared graphics memory.

The expected result is obviously having a smooth display, no flickering.

Pedro.
