Description of problem: I'm using the Fedora 14 graphics test day live image (2010-09-28). I have an Nvidia G86M [Quadro NVS 135M] graphics card in my Dell Latitude D630 laptop. When I change display brightness rapidly using the keyboard shortcuts Fn+DownArrow or Fn+UpArrow, the screen momentarily "blinks" back to previous brightness levels. This looks quite annoying when intending to change brightness quickly. Another way of explaining this, When I press the "brightness down" keystroke 3 times in rapid succession, then brightness goes by a level on each keystroke, so 3 levels down total. But after a short instant, it reverts to the 2nd level. The translucid on-screen brightness overlay only goes down by 2 levels, however, as if it never notices the 3rd keystroke. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Name : xorg-x11-drv-nouveau Version : 0.0.16 Release : 12.20100920gitf1ac413.fc14 How reproducible: Happens always Additional info: Smolt hardware profile: http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_2e2b15ad-7abf-4d09-bd42-72e3f25f27e4
Man, Matthew's sure going to love me.
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
