[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1938477] Re: Screen brightness changing randomly
The above command didn't make any difference. My computer doesn't even have a light sensor. I have tried this before but I just tried again to make sure. I will have to keep holding the kernel version for now.

Hey thanks. If it's feature why it doesn't happen on this particular kernel version? Also my power settings does not show this option. I already tried changing it with dconf-editor. I still think it's a bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1938477 Title: Screen brightness changing randomly Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Hello guys!

wow! see this was opened in 2007. just googled this from the future (i am in 2018) and found this. using ubuntu 18. found that what was causing it in my case was a clipboard manager i use here. closing the clipboard manager stopped the bleeding. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124406 Title: Keyboard keys get stuck and repeat Status in GNU Emacs: Invalid Status in Linux: Confirmed Status in X.Org X server: In Progress Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in linux source package in Jaunty: Won't Fix Status in xorg-server source package in Jaunty: Invalid Status in Gentoo Linux: New Bug description: Keyboard keys such as the arrows, Alt-F4, PageUp/PageDown, etc. often get 'stuck' and continue being 'clicked' even after they are physically released. For example when clicking Alt-F4, sometimes it gets stuck so all the windows are closed instead of just one. My configuration is Feisty + Xgl + Compiz Fusion. My previous configuration was Edgy + Xgl + Beryl, where this didn't happen. Others have reported the same problem without using either Xgl or Compiz. The keyboard itself isn't the problem. When dual-booting to Windows, everything works fine. Also, the problem happens with two different keyboards (internal laptop, external USB). My best guess is that the problem occurs at time of high system load. Somehow during these times the key-release signal gets lost and the key-press is repeated indefinitely. This happens more often with Compiz configurations because Compiz tends to increase system load. It also happens more often with power-hungry apps like Firefox and Acrobat Reader for similar reasons. PS: When the keys would repeat all input devices would be locked up. ie. mouse won't move, clicks don't do anything, keyboard presses don't register. Then when it becomes unstuck, the mouse moves around and everything. Hope this helps.
