I hope this is the right place to put this bug. If it isn't, please let me know. I have an Intel D945GSEJT fanless mini-itx board. It is running Ubuntu 9.04. I've tried all versions of the BIOS since 0025. Current version is 0035 and I get the same problem. At some point, the screen divides into 8 or so sections (each section is the same scrambled image). To reproduce this, you'll need to install the current Adobe Flash player with Firefox and do the following: 1. Start Firefox and browse to a site like YouTube that uses the flash player. 2. Create a 2nd Firefox window, browse to any page that has content. 3. Make the 2nd window small, so that you get a scrollbar to scroll the contents vertically. 4. Move the 2nd window over the first Firefox window where the flash player is playing the streaming video. 5. Use the scrollbar in the 2nd window to scroll up and down. At some point, the video should go screwy. I noticed this happening sooner with a more recent version of the BIOS than 0025, but it happens with all the BIOS versions I tried: 0025-0035. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help resolve this problem, as it is a show-stopper for using this board.
Probably a dupe of 22921. Can you try the patch in that bug?
That would be difficult, since I don't have a build environment. Do you happen to know if the patch will be incorporated into the Karmic Koala beta release of Ubuntu? If so, I can definitely try that. Or if there is a place I can get built image that includes your patch in the meantime to try on Jaunty, let me know. thanks -dan.
Does karmic have a 2.6.31 kernel package yet? If so, can you try that?
Alpha 6 is out shortly, so I will check the kernel package that comes with that and report back.
danl, any update?
After some experimentation with two different boards of that model (which is a fanless mini-itx), it seemed to have overheating problems. I put a room fan blowing on it and I couldn't reproduce the graphic problem. So I'd say this is not a bug for now. It looks like it may be more of a hardware problem. Thanks for pinging me on this.
