[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 727979] Re: Screen flicker approx. every 30 seconds

2011-03-03 Thread Lucas Reece 
Bryce,

Thanks for the rapid response.

No, the system is about 4 years old now. I've installed many distro's on
it in the past (#buntu's, openSUSE, Mandriva, PCLinuxOS, Fedora, Mint,
Debian etc. etc.) and have never had this screen flicker before. It's
the first time have tried Natty.

Hope that helps.

Bryce,

I've responded to this on the launchpad site.

It's only the second time I've filed a bug so hope I've done the right
thing. Apologies if not.

Lucas.
