Comment 65 for bug 810093

Cool story.
Stopped reading halfway through because it starts about having to recompile packages and more of that stuff.
I'm not very tech savvy when it comes to Ubuntu and am not interested in reading through 64 comments to find out whether or not someone has posted proper instructions on how to fix the problem.
Now, how do I update this samsung-laptop file so that it doesn't flicker anymore? Preferably with clear instructions on how recompiling packages works and how it affects my usage of Aptitude Package Manager (will it say my package needs updating, since it's different from the version Apt has in its repository?).
Thanks in advance!
