i don't see how backlight could have anything to do with this. sure - cpufreq
and speed and race conditions - possibly, but not backlight :)

people wanted release dates. they insist on timed releases. e goes out bugs or
not. this is the consequence of this, rather than the "when it's ready". i made
this point repeatedly only to be poopood so it's time the lesson is learned.

those who can reproduce it should look into it, if they care and have the time,
and get it fixed before release. if not... it goes out with this bug.

it works for me on every machine i have (that's 7 quite different ones right
now) without this bug. that's several different versions of ubuntu AND arch.
that's really slow (pentium-m @ 600mhz) up to 3.4ghz i7's and everything in
between. it's nvidia, nouveau, intel 945gm, hd3000's and software compositing.

we can spend all day saying "i have the bug" and "i do not have the bug". i'm
not arguing that it doesn't exist. i'm saying that it's all empty words as long
as those who DO reproduce it don't do the work to fix it, as those who can't
are never going to figure it out magically, so that means release will be
delayed indefinitely if this situation continues... and that is not going to
happen, so release date stays.
