description |
After a fresh Intrepid install everything is working great on the Mobility X1600 this iMac has. But, as I had a monitor I used while in OS X beside it, I tried to get dual-head working, which before xrandr was nearly impossible to any satisfaction.
In Intrepid it "just worked", bravo!
So, my issue now is that there seems to be two sources of flicker with dual-head that do not appear in normal single head, with this setup:
* In some areas of the screen the mouse will strobe or flicker with what looks like noise... I thought it might be one-off issues with the mouse pointer image, but I couldn't find any rhyme or reason to it. Other parts of the screen the pointer works just fine. This happens only in extended desktop.
* Occasionally, the window in focus will "blink" outside of its bounds, as if not contained for a split second. This happens with both mirrored and extended desktop.
Again, they seem to be isolated to just dual-head mode, so I haven't been able to reproduce them without it.
Monitor #1: 1440x900 iMac
Monitor #2: 1680x1050 Dell 20"
It's worth noting, too, that using mixed monitor resolutions, or keeping them at the same resolution, doesn't seem to have an effect on the flicker, which still occurs. |

Hmm, next I'd like to forward this issue upstream, but first it must be retested on latest Jaunty to make sure the issue still happens there with the latest code. ISO images are available at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/. If you can reproduce it in the LiveCD environment, you shouldn't need to modify your installed system. Also please attach a fresh Xorg.0.log from this testing. |
