[Bug 407587] [NEW] karmic: 865g is pretty unstable

 

Public bug reported:

I think I have finally recovered acceleration on 865G after losing it on
jaunty... however there's a heavy flicker affecting the screen. It's
like if the screen is scrolled to the right of the screen and moved back
to its normal position over and over in a very short amount of time. I
think it's somehow tied to video refreshes (when something changes on
the screen) and the CPU usage.

Another problem is that after a while of these heavy flickering there's
a condition (go figure what it is) that will make video pseudo-freeze. I
get to move the mouse, the screen is positioned normally but there's no
more change in the screen. Keyboard gets unresponsive too. I get to
reboot with alt-sysrq-x, though.

The box is close to unusable right now. I tried to report this bug on
GNU/Linux like 4 times and every time it pseudo-freezed (as I said). I'm
reporting it on güindous (and it makes me so happy, you know).

Hope I can help somehow to solve this 865g problems once and for all.
