I have the flickering with the radeon driver, a Mobility FireGL 5200 and dual

The flickering was on latest intrepid (with backports repository) and still is
there on an up-to-date jaunty.
I could correlate the flickering of my external monitor to screen activity.

Same here. Became a *lot* better in KDE 4.2. You almost think it
disappeared. But it's just down from 5 seconds to minutes. I hope this
gets fixed completely before jaunty is released. I will try the pkill
krunner workaround... But how could one live without krunner? ;)

I can confirm that killing krunner fixes this, disabling KRandR does
not. Also, the bug only seems to occur while the mouse is moving (screen
blinks every ~3 seconds). In general it only blinks occasionally if the
mouse is motionless, even if the keyboard is being used. After adding a

As mentioned before on this bug, I was having the krunner issue, but

I had the same problem after upgrade to 8.10 Kubuntu. Disabling that service

This problem has been determined to be caused by the SuSE xrandr 1.2
patch we and SuSE are using. In KDE 4.2 we have Kephal which should be
able to replace the patch.

Hi crwl,
Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
