[Bug 1456596] Re: DELL XPS 13 (9343) Strange, seemingly perpetual repeat of drm activity

 

Christopher,

I am not sure I understand, what exactly you want.

On the kernels which I have tried so far, I got these results: (bad=the
bug exists as reported here, good= that bug NOT present)

3.13.0-52-generic ---- bad
3.13.0.53-generic ---- bad
3.16.0-37-generic ---- bad
3.16.0.38-generic ---- bad
3.19.0-18-generic ---- good
4.1-rc4 ------------------- good  (but wl module did not build)

I am staying with kernel 3.19 for the time being - does not seem to have
severe regressions over the other kernels :-/
