aahhh, I forgot to buy a present :( Happy (belated) bug-birthday still! Seriously though, I think the change though in comment #52 is a change to the *hardware*, so unless you have some mad soldering skills there is no way 'back out that change', even just locally. Some more frequent status updates would certainly be nice though, and at least serve to let people know that work on fixing this glaring omission is still ongoing (this was also promised in comment #52). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/755841 Title: [sandybridge] Graphics tearing when playing video To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/755841/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
