The patch titled i915-slow-acpi_lid_open-causes-flickering-v2 has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was i915-slow-acpi_lid_open-causes-flickering-v2.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: i915-slow-acpi_lid_open-causes-flickering-v2 From: Thomas Meyer <thomas@xxxxxxxx> acpi_lid_open() could take up to 10ms on my computer. Some component is calling the drm GETCONNECTOR ioctl many times in a row. This results in flickering (for example, when starting a video). Fix it by assuming an always connected lid status.
