Hi everyone. Ever since upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 I had the issues
listed in the original bug description (heavy flickering for prolonged
time, eventually stopping at lowest brightness, whenever the brightness
was changed automatically or manually).
I just installed
linux-image-3.2.0-29-generic_3.2.0-29.46~lp1028151v2_amd64.deb
from comment #49 above and ever since the problems are gone and I can use FN+F2
FN+F3 to change brighness. No other ill side effects / regressions are known.
The Laptop is a Samsung 90X3A:
sudo dmidecode|grep -i "base board information" -A3
Base Board Information
Manufacturer: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.
Product Name: 90X3A
Version: FAB1
Best Regards
Michael
PS: anything else I can help with?
