Can't change brightness on Dell Studio 1749
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?

Re: Transferring files over SSH in the console
well you can ssh to the remote machine first, then scp back to the localhost from the remote machine, does the trick?
