I'm having the same problem on my MSI GX700. As Fran said above I too
have the screen constantly going dim/bright and for now have disables
gnome-power-manager which seems to of solved the problem for now except
that I have no battery info. I have run the "acpi -V" command a few
times and I get a mixture of
>acpi -V
Battery 1: charged, 100%
Thermal 1: ok, 41.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: on-line
> acpi -V
Battery 1: charged, 0%
Thermal 1: ok, 48.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: on-line
>acpi -V
Battery 1: charging, 0%, 64:00:00 until charged
Thermal 1: ok, 48.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: on-line
>acpi -V
Battery 1: charged, 100%
Thermal 1: ok, 37.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: on-line
all these were within a few seconds of each other so I suspect that this
problem also effects the "Thermal 1" into too!?!? (Again as Fran says above it
occurs every two minutes or so but can be forced to happen by using the CD
drive or flipping back and forth through the windows with all the GL features
enabled)
cheers

PS. I'm using a new install of ubuntu with the 2.6.22-14-generic kernel
