#62 Monitor flicker on start

[maandree]

This appears to be new for version 1.46.
Dooble starting can cause monitor flicker,
depending on graphics card and monitor.
This behaviour is usually caused by actions
like getting a list of all available modes
for a CRTC.

If you have any idea what could cause this
in the code, I am willing to lend a hand it
getting this resolved as I realise that you
might not be suffering from this on your
computers.

Can you try testing dooble.sh -style motif?
Do you have plugins enabled?

[maandree]

-style motif does not help.
I have no plugins installed.

[Guess Who]

What Linux distribution?

[maandree]

Arch Linux.

[Guess Who]

Do you mind trying to use Spot-On to communicate? Or, do you have gmail?

[Guess Who]

What about Qt version?

[maandree]

I don't have gmail, or any chat client.
I don't do not know anything about spot-in.
But if figure that if running xrandr does
not cause your any of monitors to flicker,
it be best if you try to locate it myself.

[Guess Who]

Does the flickering continue during use?
Can you disable the passphrase prompt and restart?

[maandree]

I just release a minor error in dooble.sh
(not relevant to this issue) that may affect
arguments. $* should be "$@" (with
double-quotes), this makes sure that
arguments with whitespace are not split
into multiple arguments.

[maandree]

It is only one flicker then the program
starts. Beside that everything works
perfectly.

OK, will update the script.

The problem is caused by Qt 5.2.1.
