Public bug reported:
This bug started around 3 weeks ago on my Samsung N310 netbook. I run
updates at least every two days. I never had any problem with luminosity
before then (2 years of using this netbook with several Ubuntu
versions).
I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 32 bits up to date.
What I witness:
- Often, at boot up, the luminosity flickers heavily. I can not use my computer
(clicking doesn't respond) until I play with the luminosity keyboard shortcuts.
- Sometimes, it happens in the middle of a session. I can't figure out what
triggers it.
- I also noticed that, often, I can only choose between full luminosity,
backscreen off or minimum luminosity. The intermediate levels are not available
(the cursor of the OSD bubble goes automatically all the way to the top or to
the bottom).
