ozzyboy, have you tried disabling kernel mode setting in grub? That seems to be the preferred workaround in the release notes.
Assuming you have grub 2 (check synaptic - it'll be listed as 1.97 or something like that) - sudo gedit /etc/default/grub type your password add "nomodeset" within the quotes at the end of the "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX" line. save close gedit sudo update-grub and you should be right. However, the screen might still flicker when you use the Fn F* keys to change brightness. I find the best workaround for that is to add the brightness panel applet by right clicking on your top panel, clicking "add to panel", then adding the brightness applet. Then use the applet to change brightness, not the Fn F* keys. If you still having problems with suspend, it may be do with bug 435352. -- brightness is broken on MSI WIND U100 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/415023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
