dmesg output, various resolutions, patch 38008

I cloned git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~ickle/linux-2.6 and after fixing one compilation error and disabling some modules (CONFIG_STAGING=n), I managed to build the drm-testing branch.

By itself this patch did not solve the problem for me. The flickering is sort of the same, and it even introduced a new issue: from resolutions 1024x768 and upward the picture jumps sideways every other second (depends on the activity on the desktop, i.e. if I resize a window, it jumps frantically). This seems to be happening on my internal panel as well, regardless of whether the external is on or off.

Here is a dmesg dump similar to 37392.

I'll try it in conjunction with the other one that improved things.
