Bug Description
Binary package hint: xorg
Since I upgraded to Karmic Koala, my MSI Wind laptop screen keeps flickering after startup. There's a brightness slider in the top right, so I suppose it's trying to adjust the brightness of the screen and it can't decide between 80% or 90% so it keeps changing between the two. This lasts for a couple of minutes, then it stops flickering.
