Bug Description
I have an MSI Wind U90X 037EU netbook with an Intel card, I had previously Jaunty Ubuntu Netbook Remix, I upgraded to Karmic. After the upgrade the screen flickered. After login, I opened "Display", I did not set anything since every setting was ok , so I just pressed the OK, button, this stopped the flickering after login, but it still exists at login, I looked at the xorg.conf and found nothing that can cause this issue.
I assume there must be something wrong with the default refresh rate or something similar.
