Actually, Confirmed is more appropriate here because Fix Committed implies that the release is in -proposed. Thanks for testing the mainline build, though, that will help speed things along. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed = Confirmed -- [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406515 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

I've tested the 2.6.34-rc6 kernel and it fixes the issue completely!!! Thanks!!!

[Bug 406515] Re: [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops)
I wouldn't say that a fix is released, since it's only a workaround using an unsupported release candidate kernel. I think a real fix would be to have this fix backported to official lucid (and maybe karmic) kernels, but until that it's a working *temporary* solution. :) -- [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406515 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 406515] Re: [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops)
Even the same issue with lenovo y410 with 10.04, brightness keys are not getting captured in any input/eventX All other features work fine. including automatic brightness control. There is a crazy issue with this laptop. brightness value varies from 0 - 5 and 5 - 10 where 5 being the least and 0 or 10 being the heighest. to calrify more, if I use the brightness applet, the brightness is least when the slider is in the middle and increases on either side. I found max_brightness option but there is no min_brightness If at all I need to put 5 there :-) -- [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406515 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 406515] Re: [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops)
I updated the kernel to 2.6.34-020634rc6-generic and the voila, the function keys to change brightness works fine. Issue with 5 being the least brightness is not yet resolved. Let me know if there is any workaround. When the system is on battery, the brightness reduced automatically to half (5) which is least for me, and when I become idle the brightness is reduced to (0) which is highest for me (problem) Thanks for 2.6.34-020634rc6-generic work -- [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406515 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

Thanks for the tip Prakash - I can also confirm the brightness keys now work on my Lenovo G530 with kms enabled using 2.6.34-020634rc6-generic from kernel-ppa.

[Bug 406515] Re: [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops)
Confirmed with my Lenovo G530. Without any changes to boot params, the brightness keys work until gdm, (eg ok during plymouth) and also in single user mode. No acpi events are generated though. Using acpi=off works also (no events generated, handled by bios I suppose), but is useless as it kills suspend, battery status and other important things. For me, acpi_backlight=video and =vendor both had no effect. Trying nomodeset was successful. Plymouth looked ugly, but it booted ok, brightness keys work and generate osd notify bubbles, and acpi_listen shows appropriate events: # Down video DD03 0087 # Up video DD03 0086 I'll try and build a kernel with the patch from https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15054, and see if works with kms. -- [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406515 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 406515] Re: [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops)
HP Pavilion dv2500 shows the same issue. The acpi=off brings FN+F7/F8 back to life but at the cost of WiFi. I can be a hint but it's not good enough even as a workaround, as far as I'm concerned. -- [Karmic Lucid Beta 1] Brightness fn keys lost functionality (Lenovo laptops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406515 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

@Paul Dufresne: acpi_backlight=vendor | acpi_backlight=video don't bring any difference. @raido357: acpi=off works on Lucid beta 1! Thanks. If I remember correct, it didn't on Karmic! My FN brightness keys works now under Lenovo N200 after adding acpi=off to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= line in /etc/default/grub.
