--- Comment #21 from John <infynidybusine...@yahoo.com> 2010-03-10 19:23:09 --- Sachin, I must say, those are great specs. Core i7 w/ 4+ gigs DDR3, sweet. So I've looked at it and I see that the video device is an "IGD", and it says "enabled", whereas mine says "Intel Cantiga Chipset Family", "Disabled". It's a real shame, probably a great laptop. I love mine. I noticed that I am able to change the brightness if I press Fn+F8, it's the contrast control sequence. If I press it twice, it will dim the screen all the way to what seems like the lowest brightness, and if I do it again, it will raise it back to full. That only works for a few times, then DMESG states ACPI Warning: _BQC returned an invalid level (20100121/video-638) I wish I could debug it myself and figure out exaclty where the problem is. I looked in the ACPI tree and opened the video file, I've seen all these methods in there, for controlling the brightness, but I dont' see where the problem is.
