Description:

The problem only appear on the display after using Xorg Server and the same problem as http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.dri.devel/128285. To solve the problem run this command on Xorg server: xrandr --output HDMI-0 --auto --set audio off

I'm testing with the new Linux Kernel 4.0.3 using testing repositories, the blurry and vertical purple line issue were solved.
