Jander Moreira, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-a26 ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - The screen flicks when dimming in Dell Latitude E4300 + [Dell Latitude E4300] The screen flicks when dimming ** Tags added: bot-stop-nagging needs-upstream-testing regression- potential -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1188783 Title: [Dell Latitude E4300] The screen flicks when dimming Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The screen flicks everytime it dims or the brightness is changed. lspci | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) uname -a Linux XXXX 3.8.0-23-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 29 20:24:54 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux dpkg -l | grep xorg | awk '{ print $2" - "$3 }' python3-xkit - 0.5.0ubuntu1 xorg - 1:7.7+1ubuntu4 xorg-docs-core - 1:1.6-1ubuntu2 xserver-xorg - 1:7.7+1ubuntu4 xserver-xorg-core - 2:1.13.3-0ubuntu6 xserver-xorg-input-all - 1:7.7+1ubuntu4 xserver-xorg-input-evdev - 1:2.7.3-0ubuntu2b2 xserver-xorg-input-mouse - 1:1.7.2-3 xserver-xorg-input-synaptics - 1.6.2-1ubuntu6 xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse - 1:12.9.0-0ubuntu3 xserver-xorg-input-wacom - 1:0.19.0-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-all - 1:7.7+1ubuntu4 xserver-xorg-video-ati - 1:7.1.0-0ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-video-cirrus - 1:1.5.2-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-fbdev - 1:0.4.3-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-intel - 2:2.21.6-0ubuntu4 xserver-xorg-video-mach64 - 6.9.3-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-mga - 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-modesetting - 0.7.0-0ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-video-neomagic - 1:1.2.7-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-nouveau - 1:1.0.7-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-openchrome - 1:0.3.1-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-qxl - 0.1.0-0ubuntu3 xserver-xorg-video-r128 - 6.9.1-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-radeon - 1:7.1.0-0ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-video-s3 - 1:0.6.5-0ubuntu3 xserver-xorg-video-savage - 1:2.3.6-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion - 1:1.7.7-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-sis - 1:0.10.7-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-sisusb - 1:0.9.6-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-tdfx - 1:1.4.5-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-trident - 1:1.3.6-0ubuntu2 xserver-xorg-video-vesa - 1:2.3.2-0ubuntu1 xserver-xorg-video-vmware - 1:12.0.2+git.e5ac80d8-0ubuntu1 Ubuntu Raring was last updated in Jun 6, 2013, using only the Canonical repositories.
