[Bug 538648] Re: [Intel GM45] Irregular sync flashes on 8086:2a42 (Needs i915.powersave quirk)
I would beg to differ here, I have a compaq NC6220 with the intel 915GM and it flickers like crazy when under any CPU load.

Yep, pretty familiar with how to do that, currently driving a project at my company where we are deploying 100's of ubuntu desktops...

Strange thing is (and this is a home laptop, not part of my work project) it runs fine after reboot, then after some time the flickering starts to come back when the CPU gets loaded up. I was also mainly addressing Robert Hooker's comment: JC: 915GM wasn't affected by this, and we disabled FBC on 915GM/945GM a few months ago already. When in fact I have the subject card and current kernel and it isnt fixed.
