[Akagi <akagi010@xxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, by adding the parameter "radeon.new_pll=0" to the kernel command
line the problem is not solved. I will upload a new set of logs with
apport-collect immediately.

If I remove the "splash" parameter from the command line Ubuntu boots
without flicker (and much faster).

Best regards!


** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T500 with an ATI Radeon Mobility HD 3650
  graphic card onboard. I activated this card via BIOS and launched Ubuntu
  10.04 (AMD64) via grub.
  
  As it seems the TFT is now activated and deactivated every two seconds.
  This stops when I have to enter my LUKS password for harddrive
  encryption. Every keystroke causes this problem again. After finished
  entering the password the flicker continues until the login screen is
  shown. After this I have no further problems.
  
  It seems to me that the display is really deactivated; it is totally
  black with no backlight.
  
  Hope that helps.
  
  Best regards!
