[Desktop-packages] [Bug 695680] Re: [gm45] Choppy / jerky mouse with Intel GMA 4500M
OK, problem solved! Thanks to http://souriguha.wordpress.com/2011/03/08/how-to-solve- problem-with-thinkpadkslowd-kworker-on-linux-kernel-2-35-2-36/ I found a solution. Too bad it's after I converted to Arch Linux. Here are two variants of the solution in short, based on affect: Immediate (until restart): sudo su - echo N /sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters/poll exit Permanent (after restart): sudo su - echo options drm_kms_helper poll=N/etc/modprobe.d/local.conf exit Hope this helps others having the same problems on Acer Extensa 5235 and/or Intel GMA 4500M graphic, no matter the kernel version and linux distribution. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Also affects: linux (Arch Linux) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/695680 Title: [gm45] Choppy / jerky mouse with Intel GMA 4500M Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “linux” package in Arch Linux: New Bug description: Binary package hint: xorg My mouse is choppy sometimes.
