T60 Flickering Display

[Ohwii]

Hi Guys,

finally after ubuntu recognizes my graphic-card I now have to problem that whenever I start a Video or the screen saver the video/ screen saver starts to flicker.

Does Anyone have experience with this issue?

I'll enclose the fglrxinfo and the xorg.conf

Would be good if someone could help

anybody else??

[Kazz000]

I think that it is a problem with the ATI drivers. My x1650 Pro will flicker when playing games or during a screensaver unless I disable the desktop effects. It might not be the same for your setup though, I dont know. Some fullscreen games just dont work period for me sometimes. My monitor says no support and I have to quit or sometimes reboot. Maybe I will finally switch to nvidia now. :(

Bump!

any thinkpad users??
