What component is responsible for calibrating the screen brightness then? This IMHO is an important issue, it makes Ubuntu look absolutely useless to average consumers, no average person would ever guess that they have to right click something to stop this insane flickering.
I have an up to date system, and I even reinstalled Ubuntu using the Beta CD image, to make sure, that the problem is not some upgrade problem, this even happens on a live CD session. ** Summary changed: - [i945] Screen flickers after upgrade to karmic + [Karmic] [i945] Screen flickers due to constantly changing brightness level -- [Karmic] [i945] Screen flickers due to constantly changing brightness level https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413399 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
