Public bug reported: Detailed description:
When the screen fades out, for example when asking for a root password to launch software update, the display seems to hiccup and looks ugly. Instead, either the fade should be smooth, or the fade shouldn't occur. Steps to reproduce: Option 1: - Do something graphical requiring a root password (launch software update, synaptic, etc.) Option 2: - in Terminal, type: gksudo gedit ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Description changed: Detailed description: - When the screen performs a fadeout, for example when asking for a root - password to launch software update, the screen seems to hiccup and looks - ugly.
