Bug#569596: xserver-xorg-core: Can no longer control backlight

2010-08-16 Thread Elias Önal
So could you change the bug ticket to be a kernel bug then? I also read
somewhere at the Ubuntu tracker it would be solved by disabling KMS so
that's another proof it's a kernel bug. I would love to have it fixed
till Squeeze reaches stable, since in Lenny it works pretty well.

Same problem here using Squeeze. I just installed a few days ago. Also
a Samsung Q45 laptop.

That's a kernel bug.

Is there something in /sys/class/backlight on your system?
