Julien,
So the issue is resolved with the new version? I'm assuming it is and closing the report. Feel free to shout if not :)
unfortunately I must shout... What *is* resolved is- xorg still loading the openchrome driver even after removing the corresponding package during the course of an upgrade due to a dependency conflict between xserver-xorg-video-5 and xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (resolved by stupid me finally rebooting the computer), and
- the dependency issue described above, mutually excluding the installation of xserver-xorg-video-5 and xserver-xorg-video-openchrome (resolved by the latest upgrade).
However, the main issue (flickering TV), which occured after an upgrade prior to the ones mentioned above, has *not* been resolved. Not too surprising -- xserver-xorg-video-openchrome is still at the same version (1:0.2.904+svn827-1) at which I first encountered the bug.
So may I ask you to please re-open the bug? Thank you -- tcrass
