I'm having the same problem the video is showing. Has the kernel-update being refered to in #32 already landed? If not, will this happen automatically or do I really have to manually install it? I'm asking because I'm not sure if I'm technically skilled enough to start messing with kernels. Then a

I retested the Ubuntu 12.10 daily live version today, and unfortunately the bug does still exist in kernel 3.5. I'm not sure if I tested it wrong the first time (it seems to matter how fast you try to increase or decrease the brightness) or if this is a regression. The screen doesn't show the behav
