Title:
  Screen blank or shaking if boot without nomodeset

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Booting with kernel 3.2.0-29 works normally. After upgrading to
  3.2.0-52 the screen started shaking erratically and it was very hard
  to make out anything on it. Adding the "nomodeset" parameter to boot
  work as a workaround but also seems to make X.org use the vesa driver
  instead of intel -> slower desktop.
