however, the flickering still happens... maybe less intensly, but still very incomfortable to use. :-(
Please provide a log with this, preferably -logverbose 7.
maybe "flickering" is not the correct term. (sorry, i'm neither a native english speaker nor an X developer) what i'm experiencing is: - the screen goes blank during 1 second (or less, or more) then resume - it generally happens after some time (around 1 hour) - once it begins to happen, killing X and restarting X doesn't quiet the problem for 1 hour: problem re-happens almost instantaneous - opening a fullscreen application with a lot of white in the window (think firefox with google's homepage) seems to trigger it more easily - changing virtual desktop to something else seems to quiet it a bit - returning to offending virtual desktop re-triggers it - sometimes, i have the blank screen triggered, then X seems to have sync back but the blank screen returns. it can last for more than 30 seconds if i don't change what's displayed (eg by changing virtual desktop) - it only happens when 1600x1200, using xrandr to change resolution puts an end to it immediately - cvt -r 1600 1200 doesn't seem to help you'll find attached: - Xorg.0.log with logverbose 7 (X killed by ctrl+alt+space when problem has been experienced) - X's stderr (which is not empty) - my xorg.conf if that's of any help thanks for your help, jérôme -- jquelin@gmail.com
