It seems to flicker whenever an X application refreshes part of its window. The backlight flicker is most noticeable with Chrome browser and mplayer video player. Sometimes it will flicker a few times, sometimes continue to flicker quickly. Occasionally the backlight will stay off for a while, and then I can see the windows very faintly if I have good room lighting, so it's definitely a backlight problem. My display hardware is Intel HD Graphics 4400 (i965 driver) I backed off to the previous kernel, 3.13.0-43.72, and the flickering problem stopped. Now backlight stays on consistently, as it should.
