Comment 51 for bug 318325

I've tested edgers xorg drivers. The result is the same (my subjective feeling is that the screen flickers even more). With Jaunty support expiring I guess our options are on decline. I've tested Fedora and the result is exactly the same. It appears that the bug arose in the heart of the xorg driver. I don't have any experience with xorg drivers (or any other drivers) hacking but if someone has some clue where the problem might lie I might check it. This is over two years since this bug, which is very serious for my user experience, emerged and it's getting pretty frustrating. So if someone has any idea where to look in the driver's code for this bug - I'm ready to verify it.
