https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334654 Summary: Intel Q965 with dual-DVI ADD2 card and Gnome: One panel blinks on and off randomly Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: sndirsch@novell.com ReportedBy: erikj@sgi.com QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: Third Party Developer/Partner After working around 334624, I had a working desktop extending across both monitors. Find the Erik-modified xorg.conf in 334624. Everything seemed to be working fine, but then the left display blanked for half a second a came back. When this happens, the DVI icon from the monitor panel comes on itself. To me, this means the panel may have thought it lost the DVI signal for a moment. The panel on the right, connected to TMDS-2, is fine. The panel on the left, connected to TMDS-1, has the blanking problem. It started out as just once in a while, but it seems to vary and as I type, it's happening enough where I can't use that half of my desktop for anything. I know I probably got the Component wrong but I don't know enough about graphics to understand if this is a kernel driver issue, or an X11 issue, or what. I don't mention this to be annoying -- just as a data point -- ubuntu 7.10rc does not suffer from this problem. My xorg.conf isn't exactly the same there, but it works perfectly with extended desktop. Although, ubuntu didn't configure xorg.conf right to start off with - sort of their version of bug 334624. This is why I don't believe this to be a hardware problem with the embeded graphics chip, the ADD2 card, or the panel -- it works fine in ubuntu... And even worse (clap of thunder), it works fine in Windows XP - which I used just to verify hardware functionality of this bug and 334624.

I can try things though, and give more info as needed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
