Title:
  display driver / video issues in 3.18 (regression from 3.16)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After upgrading to the 3.18 kernel in vivid (currently with
  initrd.img-3.18.0-8-generic), hangouts are behaving badly for me. I
  suspect this is due to video device performance but that's just a
  guess.

  Things I've noticed:
   * hangouts have horizontal black bars / gitchy video even when just displaying my webcam (before others have joined)
   * mplayer does not show video, but just a black box
     mplayer /usr/share/example-content/Ubuntu_Free_Culture_Showcase/How\ fast.ogg

  This does not happen in 3.16.
  Specifically, I see this in:
    linux-image-3.16.0-28-generic: /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-28-generic
  but not in
    linux-image-3.18.0-8-generic: /boot/vmlinuz-3.18.0-8-generic
