Can't change brightness on Dell Studio 1749

2010-03-30 Thread Ustun Kaya
Hello folks,

I installed Debian Squeeze on Dell Studio 1749 and I can't change the
brightness when the OS is up (Fn + F4 - F5 doesn't work). It works
when the BIOS screen is open, before booting into Debian. xbacklight
gives the following output:

us...@earth:~$ xbacklight -get
No outputs have backlight property

Any help?

Best,
Ustun

well you can ssh to the remote machine first, then scp back to the
localhost from the remote machine, does the trick?
