german uglya, as per http://www.asus.com/Notebooks/X200MA/HelpDesk/ an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (506). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-506 ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1341333 Title: Flickering bar in the top left of the screen Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Flickering bar in the top left of the screen ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.99.910-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-30.55-generic 3.13.11.2 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-30-generic x86_64 .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: (gconftool-2:4305): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: Did not receive a reply.
