I ran a "apport-collect 368946" to provide you with some more
information.

This is a really nasty bugger. I have been playing around with it for a
while now but could not find any 'workaround' so far.

I reactivated CRTL + ALT + Backspace to kill X to see if it helps, but it does not. It even flickers in the Logon Screen.
So I tried to kill the gnome-power-manager process, that did it for the logon screen. But as soon as I logon in a gain a new gnome-power-manager process is started and the flickering starts again. Killing this new one does oddly not help any more, the screen keeps flickering and after a while I get an osd-notify that the configuration for CRT 58 could not be set properly and it keeps on flickering.

For me the flickering happens every time I close the lid. The only
solution I found so far is rebooting the laptop.

I hope this helps in the investigation. Please let me know if you need
any more information.
