System: Intrepid Ibex. See comment #126 for more hardware/software
detail.
* Commenting suggestion from Jérémie Laval:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/linux/+bug/285323/comments/51
-- I also found that this trick did not work for me (as Saïvann
Carignan mentioned in comment #53)
* Confirming Endolith's 3rd observation in comment #56 above: hald-
addon-dell-backlight is taking much CPU (~48%; or if I have firefox as
the main window: X ~ 32%, hald-addon-dell-backlight ~ 14-18%, firefox
~10%).
* Confirming comment #91 by Daniel Knitt-Frank: When I got locked due
to Fn+up/dn, then when I used Ctrl+Alt+F{n} (n = 1..6) for the first
time (as the suggested for workaround), the X screen somehow pops back
in before I even pressed Ctrl+Alt+F7. I had to press Ctrl+Alt+F{n} then
Ctrl+Alt+F7 again to fully restore the functionality of keyboard (just
to be safe). Weird.
Also related, probably: after the suspend and resume, sometimes the LCD
brightness slider would not work anymore. But later on (don't remember
whether I suspended again or not in between) it worked again. I may need
to open a separate thread for this bug. But for now I just want to make
a comment on that.
My DMI vendor string is also "Dell Computer Corporation", so I'm out of
luck with the fix already in the kernel. When will somebody act upon
this?
