[Bug 1229288] Re: 13.04 unity displays heashed output

 

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.12 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  13.04 unity displays heashed output

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  At some as yet undetermined user input, my screen 'hashes'...
  individual pixel lines become displaced by a few on a cyclic basis, so
  that the display becomes illegible.  Note that this is an AMD64
  machine with Nvidia graphics.  I also experienced a problem a few days
  ago with some windows appearing completely black, but only when 'on
  top': the problems may be related.

  I get internal crashes every few days that ask my permission to send
  off a bug report.  I checked the output of ubuntu-bug linux and it
  seemed to indicate that I am running Ocelot, while I am in fact
  running Ringtail.  These problems have only appeared with Unity under
  Ringtail.  None occurred with Gnome.

  Here is the diagnostic output.
