[Bug 1324173] Re: Screen flickers black and backtraces in dmesg

 

People suffering from this problem will probably want to try the drm-
intel nightly kernel [0], as per
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86000>.

0. To quote Imre Deak from there: "... the drm-intel-nightly branch from
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm-intel ..."

  Screen flickers black and backtraces in dmesg

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using newest utopic my screen flickers to black and back every now and
  then during regular use. After a few seconds it comes back. Whenever
  this happens I get an error trace in dmesg. All of them are slightly
  different, here is an example one:
