Hi sl-solaris,

Thanks for including an image to demonstrate the issue. Could you also please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` too.

Hello!? Anybody home?

I understand hardware specific bugs aren't easy to fix as few people have the hardware to hand to experiment with. If I was even faintly competent with C and device drivers I would be all over this but sadly I am not, however...

I have a thinkpad x30 with this problem and if anyone is willing to take on this bug I will gladly help by typing whatever you want or I could maybe give you ssh on it, hell if you live near NYC you can come borrow the damn thing for a few weeks if that's what it takes - I need my wobbly windows back!
