@ Andreas Modinos, Your solution worked well, although it was confusing.
Specifically, you should do the following: 1. Go to compizconfig-settings-manager (if you don't have it, in terminal: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager ) 2. On the left side, go to Category > General Options > Display Settings (Tab) > Lighting (uncheck box). I'm wondering if this could be disabled by default or if it is neccesary for new video cards. Thanks for the fix. -- [Legacy Radeon cards] Desktop effects/compiz: display brightness fluctuation with zoom, workspace switch or Expo https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/539163 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
