Bug description:
  I am using a HP Pavilion dv6 with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 Graphics.  
After upgrading to ubuntu 16.04 LTS using Gallium 0.4 on AMD REDWOOD (DRM 
2.43.0, LLVM 3.8.0).  I get an unstable display when I plug in my external 
display through the VGA port.  The system keeps cycling through the display 
options using only one display, then both then extended and then the other 
display.  This happens every 10-15 seconds.

I will look at the kernel.  I used to have Ubuntu 14.04 and it worked
perfectly.

Kind regards

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1629917] Re: When using external monitor displays become unstable

2016-10-03 Thread Joseph Salisbury
Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade?  Was there a
prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem?

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v4.8 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as
"Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.
