I was in the process of building the mainline kernel for the first commit
identified by git bisect. (I skipped the exercise of building the two mainline
kernels that mapped from the good and bad Ubuntu kernels.) I ran this command
at step 8:
make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` deb-pkg
LOCALVERSION=-MainlineBisect1
(substituting "MainlineBisect1" for "custom").
The machine worked on this for perhaps 8 hours (I stopped monitoring at
some point and let it run overnight). I found these warnings/errors at
the end of the results:
dpkg-gencontrol: warning: File::FcntlLock not available; using flock which is
not NFS-safe
dpkg-deb: building package `linux-firmware-image' in
`../linux-firmware-image_3.7.0-MainlineBisect1-1_i386.deb'.
dpkg-gencontrol: error: illegal package name
'linux-headers-3.7.0-MainlineBisect1': character 'M' not allowed
make[1]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 255
make: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2
It did produce linux-firmware-image_3.7.0-MainlineBisect1-1_i386.deb (a
1.1MB file), but nothing else.
A couple questions then:
1) Was "MainlineBisect1" not allowed as a string substitute for
"custom"? If not, what is allowed?
2) Do I have to back up to perhaps "make clean" and do the 8-hour thing
over again, or can I salvage whatever it was doing for 8 hours?

Title:
8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple
only, and in a horizontally compressed space
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what
works:
- Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel
- Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a
low-res desktop with a frozen pointer)
- Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710
mainline kernels
- Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome)
what fails:
- Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel
- Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5
- Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel
Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the
Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.
WORKAROUND: Setting the Intel driver's acceleration method to UXA
rather than its default SNA *always* fixes the Flash problem, but
causes a garbled login screen under LightDM that so far has no
workaround.
I also tried one possible fix for the default Intel SNA acceleration using
the TearFree option. I created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with
contents:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection
But this had no effect.
