[00:50] <furkan>  22:50:08 	<RAOF>	You know, i915, I'd really prefer it if you *didn't* periodically blank my screen for a single frame. <-- i started getting this on my laptop too, a while ago... it started happening when i upgraded to the xenial kernel, then went away when i downgraded back to wily (the laptop is running ubuntu 14.04)
[00:50] <furkan> maybe i'll give linux-generic-lts-yakkety a shot when that makes it into trusty-proposed
[00:52] <furkan> RAOF: and my laptop is Nehalem... an i5-520M... so it looks like the issue spans across at least 4 generations lol
[00:52] <RAOF> Yeah.
[00:53] <furkan> i wonder if anybody did a kernel bisect
[01:07] <RAOF> I'd guess at some of the atomic modesetting plumbing.
