Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 3.4.2+git20120925.a4c817-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have a Samsung Series 9 13.3" laptop (NP900X3C).
I added acpi_backlight=vendor to kernel uptions, and now the brightness
setting
keys can only decrease the brightness. They can not increase it because it
seems that they think the max value is something around 100, which is wrong
and
the right value is around 4400.
I can set the brightness using this command:
echo 1600 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
Thanks,
Adrin.
