I found a way to disable the nouveau driver. Go to /etc/modprobe.d directory and open blacklist.conf in a text editor. Type:
#nouveau blacklist nouveau This will stop thd kernel from loading the module. You will not get the resolution ability but is stops the flickering. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973610 Title: Flickering Screen - X Display Problem Nouveau DRM [12.04 Beta2] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/973610/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
