Have you added noatime to your /etc/fstab?

relatime > noatime

Also consider changing /boot to ext2....

I guess we need to ask FESco to adopt ext2 as the default /boot filesystem instead.... but seriously, that will not affect anything.

I may have been overly bored yesterday. I logged out and let the laptop sit for 5 minutes and it eventually stopped flickering so much. It would flicker after 30 seconds to 1 minute, which is better.

I'll consider the debug output Roberto mentioned when I get bored again.

Thanks,
Michael
