Public bug reported: SUMMARY: After successful installation of the latest Kubuntu release (8.10), I've noticed that each time I attempt to do anything within the window environment, my screen goes blank, and then reappears. This often seems to happen when I'm either accessing the keyboard or mouse (pretty much *all* the time) -- a very annoying problem!!! My 'gut reaction' tells me this is likely an X Window thing.
Release 8.10 (Kubuntu) EXPECTED RESULT: While using the mouse or keyboard, the monitor (screen) should NOT go blank every few seconds. ACTUAL RESULT: The monitor goes blank for a few seconds and then reappears each time I use either the mouse or keyboard see attached files: lspci_and_dmesg_output.txt ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Monitor screen flashes on use of keyboard and mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
