Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
I have early 2006 Macbook (1.1) changing the LCD brightness using the keyboard keys previously resulted in smooth brightness changes (from 0% <-> 100%). I've upgraded to maverick yesterday and the "minus" brightness key when going from 100% results in flickering cycles (100% -> 0% -> 50% -> 0% -> 100% -> 0%). This is a regression from Lucid and Karmic, while Jaunty and before had the same flickering.
