 here...

 I have opened a new ticket #8010 for "My Battery" status not updating
 smoothly.

 This older ticket #8006 will be for the mysterious backlight bug, which
 has not manifested for several hours now.  It needs to be seen again,
 perhaps by someone else who recently upgraded to 2301.  Here is a
 suspicion:  maybe it only happens on battery power when charge is near
 100% ?  I can probably test this theory in less than 2 hours from now.

 I read somewhere on the wiki that joyride-2301 has auto-suspend disabled,
 so for this ticket I shall de-emphasize poor power management.
