[Nouveau] [Bug 61537] Screen flicker when using display with incorrect EDID

--- Comment #2 from Martin Peres <martin.peres at ensi-bourges.fr> ---
I investigated this issue a little. The flickering happens when someone runs
xrandr. This is a hardware issue as the problem happens even with when using
the proprietary driver. This issue got fixed starting with the geforce 8.

The desktop environment shouldn't poll on xrandr like that, so there is a bug
on their side. On our side, the workaround suggested by Jan will be our
"solution" until someone really wants to dig into this issue and see if there
is a way to build a cache or something to avoid load detection.

In any case, I'm tempted to close this bug as "WONTFIX" but I'll wait for other
devs to agree before doing so.
