[Bug 1300349] Re: 8086:0a16 [Dell Inspiron 17R 5737] Video looks interlaced

 

Hi Peter, as you may have seen I didn't bake the fix by myself. 
I've just helped @jsalisbury to find the commit which broke the kernel.
I've requested both him and @penalvch to backport the fix to the *ubuntu kernel, even because canonical is the one in charge to keep the LTS for the 14.04 kernel which has ben dropped by mainstream.
Unfortunately i don't know the procedure to find a developer willing to export the patch and submit upstream.
