Bug Description
On my htcleo machine (HTC HD2 smart phone) unity-2d interface is flickering when using an unmodified natty arm image, rendering it unusable. Since other devices exist with the same SoC in htcleo (qsd8250) using same dsp => same framebuffer driver, this problem is likely to occur on several other devices.
Thanks to Ricardo Salvetti (rsalvetti on irc.freenode.net #ubuntu-arm) I now have this problem solved locally:
When I run the unity-2d-* binaries like this:
"unity-2d-launcher -graphicssystem native" it works without any graphical glitch. To automate it I moved all /usr/bin/unity-2d-* to /usr/bin/
Is there a way to configure this? If not, can we get one?
Best regards and thanks again to Ricardo,
Lukas
