Hi,
I've an athec lug netbook ("a MSI clone") and also have the blinking brightness
problem after upgrade my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS to 12.04 LTS.
Here you have a workaround that is working fine for me:
sudo chmod u-w /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
And then I can adjust the brightness by keyborad (Fn+...)

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Versions : karmic up to date (08-17-09) with gnome-power-manager
version 2.27.5-0ubuntu2
What should happen : brightness should not flash.
What happens :
Brightness changing seems broken on my MSI wind U 100.
First in GDM it starts flashing for a good 30 seconds and then the
same problem happened when the Gnome session begins.
Whenever I try to manually change the brightness a bit too fast
(using the sliders or the keyboard) it start flashing again.
