** Description changed:
When I adjust the brightness or volume using the keyboard media buttons
during full screen video playback, the screen flickers. This happens in both
Vlc and the default Videos application. Is there a fix for this? I am using
ubuntu 15.04 with ati catalyst 15.20.

The default driver though causes screen flickering at boot before the
login screen comes up. I get a purple screen followed by white
flickering. The ubunt
skt.diaz, default radeon driver means the one that is enabled by default
in Ubuntu when one runs either a live environment or installed. Also,
radeon and fglrx are two different drivers (open source versus closed).

this doesnt happen when i use xorg.xserver driver.
