--- Comment #22 from James Brechtel <[email protected]> 2010-09-19 06:21:19 PDT --- Hi, I have the same problem on my Envy 14, but thanks to a tip from the helpful folks in #radeon on FreeNode I found that if I turn off my laptop panel with xrandr then my external display immediately becomes ungarbled. Specifically, the command: xrandr --output LVDS-1 --off (and then, because it starts in mirror mode with a non-native resolution of my monitor) xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --auto I'm using Arch and am selecting the ATI card via vgaswitcheroo first. Here's my uname-a Linux bender 2.6.35-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 27 17:14:28 CEST 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 450 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux Package versions: local/xorg-server 1.8.1.902-1 local/xf86-video-ati 6.13.1-1 (xorg-video-drivers) local/ati-dri 7.8.2-1 Hope this helps anyone who may find this trade-off suitable until a proper fix is found. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
