Forwarding this bug from Ubuntu reporter Alan Lord:
http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/614238

[Problem]
Output on external screen with VGA is described as having waves that makes it 
unusable. The problem has been observed with kernels up through and including 
3.0 release candidates. This problem was also discussed on 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28306, and a patch that helped was 
provided there (commit 633f2ea "drm/i915: Disable SSC for outputs other than 
LVDS or DP") but was later reverted (commit fc9a222), so the issue is still 
outstanding. It was requested that a new bug be opened as a result of confusion 
from unrelated issues.

[Original Description]
A similar problem with Lucid was reported mainly by users of ATi Radeon 
graphics hardware. I also experienced the "wavy" output in Lucid, although the 
graphics h/w is the integrated intel that comes with the Core i3 processors.

It is easy to reproduce. Just plug in an external monitor or projector.
The output is not stable/solid and has waves that make it unusable.

I tried the Maverick Alpha3 to see if it had been addressed in the
2.6.35 kernel but the problem is still apparent.

The LCD display of the Laptop is rock solid and sharp. This only affects
the external VGA from what I can tell. I do not have any hdmi devices to
test with so cannot confirm if the symptoms are just VGA or any external
monitor connection.

Similar bug reports from Lucid include: 537640, 541501, 557814, 562138
although these all seem to relate to the ATI chipsets, the description
of the problem sounds the same.

I am happy to try upstream kernels and build/patch/compile if necessary.

Sorry, it remains blacks when the external screen is plugged in.
Otherwise the laptop screen works well after restarting the X server. (I

Using vostro 3300 with i3 encountered the same problem and applied the
described patch.

Laptop's screen remains black when external screen is connected. The
external screen works well though.

Unplugging the cable to the external screen brings back the display to
the laptop's screen.

However, after 2-3 times that you do that, the system hangs. Can't
switch to any display, both screens are black, ctrl+alt F1 through F12
doesn't help. Only hard reboot works.

I've noticed the following appearing in my logs:

         :[  175.787969] [drm:intel_disable_transcoder] *ERROR* failed
to disable transcoder

Happy to help in any testing. This issue is really a painful one for me.
Can't use my laptop with an external display at work (well - you have to
plug/unplug at least once a day. Rebooting every 2-3 days is not an
option...)

I've created a version of Chris Wilsons patch which disables SSC for all

Since SSC is just a hack to get around some strict FCC EMI rules (according to

Hi Ben!

Thanks a lot for your patch. I've just applied it on the kernel 3.0
(with minor modifications because your patch is for 2.6.38) and both
screens are now working. I will share the ubuntu package soon.

Thanks Ben!

I can confirm the patch works well on my Dell Vostro 3300 with i3.

Plugging and unplugging the external display now works as expected and
the display is stable.

Hi James, I am glad that there is a solution to the long standing issue
which I have followed for half a year. I have core i5 too. Do I need to
compile the kernel with this patch?

With a small tweak on intel_bios.c for kernel version 2.6.39.3, it works
on

vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6

model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU       M 380  @ 2.53GHz

Sure thing, I'll make a build and post it to the launchpad bug for

Sorry, I forgot to tell you.

This issue was discussed in intel-gfx recently. Keith wrote a series of
9 patches on the code that is used by this bug.

I believe the patches landed here:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jbarnes/linux?h=fix-pch-refclk

And the one that solves our problem is:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~jbarnes/linux/commit/?h=fix-pch-refclk&id=99eb6a01e5ac6cf28aadc64e6ff346939874dfd2

The root-cause is that on our machines we need to use
DREF_NONSPREAD_CK505_ENABLE instead of DREF_NONSPREAD_SOURCE_ENABLE when
setting the PCH_DREF_CONTROL register.

I don't think this will come for 3.1, but at least now distros can try
to backport something :)

louis@louis-laptop:/usr/src/linux-source-3.0.0/linux-source-3.0.0$ 

can anybody tell me what i'm doing wrong? I'm sure after i've patched it
properly the compiling/installing of the new kernel will be no problem.

Cheers,

Louis

When you type :
"sudo cat /home/louis/patch.diff | patch -p1"

You run cat as root and patch as louis. Then the error message should
become clear to you. Anyway, you should do everything in your home and
avoid touching the files in /usr/src.

Please avoid using this bug report ticket to ask how to apply a patch,
you should use a forum for this kind of question.

Can you share patch for kernel 3.1? I tried the above but do not match.

Is there a chance that the bug is fixed in kernel 3.2?

Yes, a pull was already requested.

See:

Please test drm-intel-next. I hope Linus will pull this soon.

drm-intel-next patch in kernel 3.1 (fix waves)

Thank you Paulo

Currently I test drm-intel-next and it works perfectly, no waves.
Previously, when switching screens sometimes appear gray screen and had to 
switch again, now drm-intel-next yet this did not happen.

I created a patch for kernel 3.1 on drm-intel-next, the file in the
attachment.

I hope that this can be included in kernel 3.2 :)

Fixes my machine. Closing bug. Reopen if that doesn't fix your machine.

how do I apply this patch. I'm not really good at these things ? I've
had this error for ever and I can't get it fixed... can it get merged
into update or something ? Thanks
