Hi mark-mazan,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISOs are available from cdimage.ubuntu.com)

If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
Thanks in advance.

The output of lspci -vvnn would also be worth having.

Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.

Hi Folks,

I'm facing the same problem. When I try to play a video with 3D effects enables the display keeps blinking. When the 3D is disabled the video plays nicely.

Enclosed my Xorg.O.log and lspci -vvnn output:

Ubuntu 8.10 64 bits (2.6.27-9-generic)
