hello, i just got my alienware m14x, right now when i put a dark grey background there's some sort of flickering it's not that bad but i was just wondering if you guys had any of it.
also, we can't in the bios switch to integrated or dedicated which sucks.
so far every game i have tested is good.
Also, i have tested Ubuntu 11.04 and network also, wifi works, but the video card gave me problems.
also, on the m11x there's an option in the bios to switch it, i wonder if we will have this option in a new bios release?
if you guys can set a dark grey background and see if you have the same issue that would be nice![]()
its even worst when the laptop is unplugged.
- latest intel driver for the hd 3000
wow, unplugged, the intel management software changed the refresh rate to 40hz, will do more testing.
-
Both me and my g/f don't see any flickering...sorry
If it is really noticeable you should call Alienware asap
The second you go from powercord to battery it switches... -
looks like the display stopped flickering.
like i said i got more testing to do, this occurred when i played with Linux. -
-
I will try debian 6.0 today to see if i get the same problem.
if it doesn't work, i might resort in trying arch linux also.
yeah, it was one of my goals to run linux most of the time, but right now i am not lucky. -
well debian i had issues with my usb cdrom drive (i have two ssd's in the beast)
archlinux doesn't detect the internal wifi or nic.
it's a problem with recent laptopsif you have more luck Killer Juice, hit me up hehe
