Dear all

I think I am experiencing this bug on my Samsung N310.
It happens every so often at booting up, the luminosity OSD bubble appears and the luminosity changes by itself. During this, it is impossible to use the computer. One way to stop it is to play with the luminosity keyboard shortcuts.
I now sometimes experience this during normal use of the computer, not only at boot up.

I also noticed that often, I can just set the luminosity to its maximum, minimum and off (no intermediate levels available, it goes all the way up or all the way down automatically).

This only started maybe 3 weeks ago. At first I thought it was bug #945006 but this one looks more like it.

I think I'm on the generic kernel 3.2.0-29.46

Can I help in any way?
