Using MSI Wind U120. Was facing the flickering display / brightness problem.
Updating the BIOS to 1.0I solved the problem.
Since many people didn't want to(read 'were scared') to update the BIOS,
I thought it would be a good idea to write down the simple steps. It
took a total of 5 minutes for me
The fix that was introduced here is just simple ignoring of
Fn+Brightness keys in hal or lately in udev rules.
But it is not fully close the problem:
1. When brightness is adjusted by keys it is go up or down 2 steps from one
keypressing.

There are no other options. If you want to cure the problem then you will
need to perform a flash upgrade of the BIOS on your MSI Wind. Believe me it
is worth the (minimal) hassle.

If you use Gnome, the easiest workaround is to install guidance-power-manager

$ cd /usr/bin
$ mv gnome-power-manager gnome-power-manager.save

By the way, bios update solves the problem.

I confirm #269. Thanks Stephen, I was about to give up!
- Method of msg #264 tried and not working.
- Flashing with flash.bat (booting from a USB sitck formatted with HP Format
Tool) did work.
Note: if you run the update while the wind is on battery (I know, I'm a
bad bad guy), it will

i flashed my bios with the new 1.0G Version. Flickering doesn't stop, but the
fan normalized.
here a little tutorial for bios flashing the easy way (Without DOS or anything
else):
1. Download the new BIOS

2.
1. Download the new BIOS (v. 1.0G)
http://msi.com/index.php?func=downloaddetailtype=biosmaincat_no=135prod_no=1474
2.Extract it
3.Download usbdos http://www.flazh.de/inc/dl.php?dl=bios/usbdos.zip
4.Extract it
5. Download the HP-Boot-Utility

still had the problem.
