Hi, bad news... i went to the IRC #xorg-devel as suggested and asked to airlied (Dave Airlie):
18:19 < mcogoni> i have a Intel D201GLY2 / D201GLY2A Mini-ITX motherboard 18:19 < mcogoni> and it displays a lot of noisy vertical bands 18:19 < mcogoni> when the resolution is over 1024x768 18:20 < mcogoni> the integrated graphics is a Sis Mirage 1 or Sis 662 I think 18:20 < mharris> Good chance a given expert may be counting sheep right now mind you... ;o) 18:20 < mcogoni> bah... 18:21 < mcogoni> the point is that a driver solving this problem exists from sis 18:22 < mcogoni> but apparently nobody upstream is including this fix 18:22 < airlied> yeah nobody has taken the time to merge the SiS stuff into the Xorg stuff 18:22 < mcogoni> exactly airlied, is there any hope for the future? 18:23 < airlied> not unless someone does it, nobody maintains SiS 18:23 < airlied> and SiS don't seem interested in updating it 18:23 < mcogoni> uhm, ok... 18:23 < airlied> I started playing with diffs last year 18:24 < airlied> the diff is quite large though. 18:25 < mcogoni> so very few chances 18:26 < airlied> if someone identified the fix it would be easy 18:26 < airlied> the problem is we just have a full code tree from SiS. marco -- Intrepid - SIS video snow/fuzz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264769 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
