Looking at your comments on Bug #307306, I'm wondering if this is similar to something I'm seeing with the latest git HEAD intel drivers, and latest gnome-settings-daemon etc..
When I make brightness changes, I get Xrandr inside the Xorg server reprobing the hardware outputs. This results in a characteristic jiggle of the mouse pointer when you move the mouse at the same time. Some events seem to put gnome-settings-daemon into a big loop, firing off Xrandr requests in response to Xrandr events caused by the last request. Try killing gnome-settings-daemon, and see if that helps. (I have to switch to console for a bit to kindof unstick the processing of remaining events - it would seem). On my GM45, it helps; but I still get a hardware re-probe for each brightness change. -- screen doesn't refresh properly after OSD from brightness/volume changes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315222 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
