[Bug 503121] Re: Screen seems to be trying to change resolution for no known reason

 

That's the thing- I didn't do anything special, or at least I didn't
think I was doing anything special, and it would sometimes just flicker
like it was changing resolutions and then go back to the normal one. The
expected behavior was obviously not flickering like that. I was trying
to just configure it for normal use, and it would just sometimes do it
after I'd closed a control panel window or something. It did it once
when the mouse pointer dipped down toward the panel at the bottom of the
screen, but that's the only one I can remember exactly what I was doing
when it happened.

Ironically, my USB stick got disconnected while I was halfway through
writing the bug report the first time around and caused the whole system
to go down. This is the second report, and it didn't flicker at all
while I was making this report.

I've not been able to find any trigger that was making it do that, and
sometimes it doesn't seem to do it at all. I'll see about finding out
what might cause it next time I boot to Alpha 1.
