f.lux darkroom mode flickers?
-
@Aron-Levy Mine's working! No guarantees it will work for everybody but here's an as accurate as I can think of recollection of everything I did.
TL;DR: try PRAM reset and at least a couple reboots.
I did try turning off the auto brightness off already but just for the lulz I turned it on again, turned it off, rebooted. Still flickering.
I took @rodneysprague 's advice and tried to debug the issue by just systematically killing processes. I got through almost everything non-essential and was still seeing the issue.
-rebooted and got everything running back to my normal state of apps and what not.
-I can't imagine how PRAM would be tied into this at all but figured, what the hell right?
-Full reboot, pram reset, then tried it and voila!
I have no idea if PRAM reset worked the magic, or maybe just going through a couple reboots shook the dust out. Either way it's up and running just fine now :)
Now I just need to switch my dark themes for terminal, atom and the menu bar and dock to light when i turn on the Darkroom mode or they're all a pretty bright white. Whenever I'm capable of such a thing, I'd love to make an Alfred workflow (or something along those lines) that can activate Darkroom, switch my atom to a light theme, my terminal to a light theme, and my OSX menu bar and dock to the light theme so they mesh better with darkroom. I prefer to use darker themes all day, but only the more standard light themes translate well to darkroom. I'm a student developer at the moment but I'd love that to be an outside of work/class project whenever I've attained the knowledge to work on it.

@Ben-Adamski I was hoping to be able to try both the sticky notes method and the PRAM reset on my wifes MBP but i have not had an opportunity as she always has some app running that cant be quit or in the middle of some project. So asap I will try both and get back with results. Perhaps it's a graphics card issue after all?

Just tried above method on my wife's 2011 MBP and it works for hers as well.
