1. I installed Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10) on a Dell Precision M90
2. When Gnome starts up off power it will automatically change the brightness. When you move the mouse the brightness increases
3. If you manually change the brightness without moving the mouse, Gnome will stop being responsive and you can no longer use any menus or type anything.
4. I can reproduce this problem at any time by following the same steps
5. I am using the Nvidia 177 restricted driver
