[Bug 1577074] Re: [HP Pavilion 15] Intermittent black screens with Crimson 15.12 driver

2016-12-21 Thread James Funk
summary:- AMDGPU driver problems on "Carrizo" APU
+ [HP Pavilion 15] Intermittent black screens with Crimson 15.12 driver
tags:   added: needs-apport-collect needs-debug-logs needs-full-computer-model

The above information is not correct, the bug is in AMDGPU, not the
crimson driver.

The submitter writes "I updated to Kubuntu 16.04 (from Kubuntu 15.10 -
that was using the Linux Crimson 15.12 driver) a couple days ago on my
notebook (HP Pavilion, A10-8700P APU), and ever since I've been having
random black screens."

He is saying he updated from 15.10 that was using the Crimson driver
(which works and is the only available option for a working display at
the moment), to 16.04, where the Crimson driver support was removed and
AMDGPU is the only option. And that is when the black screens started
happening for me also, and i had to downgrade to 15.10 and back to using
the crimson driver.

My full computer model is: HP Pavilion 15-ab114no 15,6"

2016-12-21 Thread Alberto Salvia Novella
@ Christopher M. Penalver

By setting bugs to low by procedure, there's no longer a way of telling
how several their consequences are.

This is specially important, because searches by importance no longer
distinguishes bugs by impact. So the original purpose of importances is
broken.

If a developer doesn't want to deal with reports with incomplete
information, they are better served by filtering incomplete bugs. But
the fact that a report has an importance of low doesn't tell them very
much about if to look at it or not, as importance only shows order.

Moreover by setting importance only based in impact, once the reported
sets status back to "confirmed" after providing the required info, the
importance is simply correct instantly without anyone having to modify
it. Doing the opposite will lead to critical bugs set as low, and nobody
realising it.
