In http://www.lorenzobettini.it/2015/12/flickering-for-intel-graphic- card-in-linux-4-2/ I described the steps to revert the two commits that seem to have introduced the flickering. This requires downloading the kernel sources, revert the two commits, compile the kernel and install the locally built packages.
This bug is particularly annoying, and each time a new upgrade on the kernel is released the above procedure has to be performed again. Not to mention that this bug makes the system unusable (if the above procedure is not performed). I think that the "importance" should be brought back to "Critical" (assuming that "Critical" is higher than "High"). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522922 Title: Screen flickering in Intel i915 driver To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nouveau/+bug/1522922/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
