Green tint to screen after power on PC or switching source on HDTV

[Stuart]

Fresh install Ubuntu 12.04

Intel graphics connected to HDTV via HDMI. The problem only persists for a short while, after about 5 seconds normal colour is displayed.

I also tried out Ubuntu 13.04 and the above described was not present, worked with no problem.

Hey Joe

I'd be more than happy to try your fix, can you tell me how to do this or point me in the direction of an explanation?

[Stuart (stuartkicks)]

I tried installing a kernel from the page you linked, but borked my install. Just back to a fresh install now..... Steps that I could follow for your troubleshooting would be great, if you have the time of course. Thanks.

[penalvch (penalvch)]

Stuart Anderson, given this works in Raring, would you need a backport to Precise, or may we close this as Status Invalid?

[Stuart (stuartkicks)]

Hi Christopher

You should absolutely backport this, I'm currently running Raring and the
only reason is because of the green tint.

Thanks.

Stuart Anderson, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in Raring.

This is a significant bug in Ubuntu. If you need a fix for the bug in previous versions of Ubuntu, please do steps 1 and 2 of the SRU Procedure [1] to bring the need to a developer's attention.

[Stuart (stuartkicks)]

Hey Christopher

Thanks for getting back to me. Am I right in thinking this will be fixed
in the next LTS?
