I just realized that when trying to set display brightness in "Power Management Preferences" to some levels also triggers the fluxuating.
In my case e.g. 87% causes brightness to constantly switch betwen 80 and 90%. :/proc/acpi/video/IGD/LCD$ cat brightness levels: 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 current: 80 (-> 70 -> 80 ...) Also when already at 100% and hitting the raise brightness key again does sometimes start the fluxuating or just throws it back to the next lower level. No backlight output in xrandr --verbose though. -- [i945gme] brightness fluxuates wildly on KMS (karmic) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/381461 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
