I have been able to work around this issue with the 'nomodeset' flag: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub replace splash with nomodeset save sudo update-grub On reboot the flickering stops. This might help others afflicted by this annoying issue. -- Screen flickering on Karmic Alpha 3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/404533 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
