The top panel items will eventually stop flashing (ie. session & layout) but time or certain actions cause the flashing white then black in cycle to occur again. ** Expected Result No flashing, its irritating & potentially a problem for some with certain health conditions. - ** Not new issue, it's occurred in the past hp dx6120mt (pentium 4, 3gb, winfast clone of nvidia 7600gt) I've had this issue before on eoan on hp dx6120 i believe but cannot find bug report. The bug was likely not filed as that box was i386 & support was being dropped when I noticed it so I didn't see any point. It's not new, and no doubt relates to Nvidia cards, and I'm convinced I've filed this before on dx6120 so if not eoan, disco, but I've not yet found it.
