flickering console

flickering console

[Stéphane ANCELOT]

Hi
I don't know if it is the right place... but I will explain my problem :

I am using an ATOM INTEL E3826 platform.

I have got flickering problems at bottom of my tty console, using 3.16.2 
kernel.

I tried kernel 3.18 and it has not the problem. For some technical 
reasons, I can not switch to 3.18 . Please can you tell me which 
software part of 3.16.2 I should modify to solve it?

Regards,
Steph

If you have the time, doing a reverse git bisect is probably the best
approach of finding the commit that fixed the issue for you. Depending
on the first good commit, it may or may not be easy to backport it to
3.16. But that we won't know until we know the commit.

BR,
Jani.
