[Bug 499632] [NEW] screen flickers whenever anything is drawn under KMS

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

When using KMS, the screen flickers whenever anything is updated.  So,
if there is an animated progress bar, the whole screen flickers like mad
until the progress bar goes away.  Also, the screen will turn completely
white after a while.  When using UMS (boot with i915.modeset=0), there
are no problems.
