2012-05-29 13:58:56 Chris J Arges description This bug is present in lucid (2.6.32-41 #90), but is fixed in maverick. If I install the maverick backported kernel it fixes the issue. To reproduce: 1) Connect external VGA monitor to laptop. 2) Set mode to external VGA only with its maximum resolution. (see test.sh) 3) Use xrandr to rotate monitor a few times, and turn on and off (see irritate.sh) 4) Press a few keys on the keyboard, and the keyboard will start flickering. If both internal and external monitors are active, this problem does not exist. Occasionally the flickering will stop.

SRU Justification: Impact: On laptops with pineview graphics external monitor only mode can cause the output to flicker.
