According to the upstream bug, this is a problem in gtk, not in X. Reassigning package.
"If I'm not mistaken, EDID transfers are done in-band and thus will cause the monitor to lose sync. There's really no way around it. From the recent thread on the mailing list, it sounds like the solution is to fix GTK to not rely so heavily on calls to XRRGetScreenResources()." ** Changed in: libgnome (Ubuntu Intrepid) Sourcepackagename: xorg-server => libgnome -- Screen flickers when loading applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/245383 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
