[Bug 549709] Re: [RV515] screen flickers in lucid lynx beta1 [Needs pll quirk]

[Robert Hooker]

** Description changed:

  As already reported by other users in bug reports #544662 or #543045, my
  laptop screen flickers in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx beta1. This can happen at
  boot time of after a few minutes, but when it begins it stays until
  shutdown or reboot.
  
- As for other users, this issue is solved by passing "radeon.new_dll=0"
- parameter to the kernel at boot time, or by passing "new_dll=0"
+ As for other users, this issue is solved by passing "radeon.new_pll=0"
+ parameter to the kernel at boot time, or by passing "new_pll=0"
  parameter to "radeon" kernel module.
  
  My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 6400 (aka E1505), an ATI Radeon Mobility
  X1400 video adapter and a 15.4" 1680x1050 panel. (See attached files for
  details)
