I am running HP Compaq 6730s with integrated Intel graphics and experience similar problems. My brightness controls doesn't affect the monitor backlight, even if the F7 and F8 keys work, values in /proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD04/brightness change. I tried any kernel you all suggested, ranging from 2.6.27-7 to 2.6.27-23 but none solved the issue. Any links or suggestions?

Yesterday I installed the released 2.6.27-11 kernel (ubuntu 8.10) on my lenovo X300 laptop. With this kernel brightness control is broken for me. I confirmed that brightness control still works with the older 2.6.27-9 kernel. The earlier messages in this thread suggest to me that someone has worked on this problem and the problem has been fixed for some people - but not for me. Should I report a new bug as the problem is present for me in the released kernel? -- laptop panel brightness broke after recent update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316145 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 316145] Re: laptop panel brightness broke after recent update
Nope, I was pretty sure that I did not have pre-released updates enabled, and that's what I found out by double-checking: for ubuntu updates, I have only important security updates (intrepid security) and recommended updates (intrepid-updates) enabled. On the other hand prereleased updates (and unsupported updates) are disabled. Doesn't that mean that I installed a properly released kernel update or can I not be sure of that? Can I somehow check what actual version of the 2.6.27-11 kernel I am running? In /boot, it's file name is simply vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic. -- laptop panel brightness broke after recent update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316145 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 316145] Re: laptop panel brightness broke after recent update
As a suggestion from a post on ubuntuforums.org, I decided to boot into some older kernels i had. Tested on 2.6.27-7 and 2.6.27-10, and in both, the brightness worked. This rules out the ACPI, unless it loaded a different module for those kernels. Kernel 2.6.27-11.23 is in fact the faulty element in the problem. Now, how does one go about to fix this? said the n00b :D ** Description changed: Recent updates rendered my brightness control via gnome-power-manager unusable. I have no way to controlling the brightness of my screen. whether be it by soft-keys (fn+f7 or fn+f8) or by the Power Manager Brightness Applet in gnome. attached you'll find my hal_output.txt from issuing the lshal command in gnome-temrinal Unfortunately, i dont remember exactly what packages updated when the bug appeared.

Hey Jerry, did you recently perform an update to the linux headers/image 2.6.27-11.23 or acpi-support? If you know how to do it, great!

Yup, just did it the day before yesterday. It doesn't make sense to look further back since I've been on vacation and the computer hadn't been used since mid-december... All I know is previously the applet worked, and after the updates, it doesn't.
