We apply a recently developed Vlasov solver to the study of the microbunching instability generated by shot noise in the beam delivery systems of x-ray free electron lasers (FELs). We discuss two lattices presently under consideration for the FEL Fermi project at Elettra and show that at least one of the two lattices appears capable of delivering a beam with the desired quality in the longitudinal phase space.
