[Bug 566134] Re: brightness-applet behaviour is good
In 12.04 LTS I don't use brightness-applet anymore and the Fn+F7/F8 is working as expected, so I think this issue could be closed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566134 Title: brightness-applet behaviour is good To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/566134/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 566134] Re: brightness-applet behaviour is good
Similar to the original poster's problem, I am unable to change the brightness by dragging the slider or pressing the + and - keys. When doing so, the applet simply closes. However, I am able to change the brightness by scrolling up and down with my mouse/touchpad and arrow keys. Well, my Fn brightness keys work correctly, so this isn't an issue for me. The main problem is that it is quite slow and jerky when using the applet to change the brightness. The changes used to be smooth and quick in earlier Ubuntu versions (until Lucid I think). I am using Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566134 Title: brightness-applet behaviour is good -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I am also affected by this problem. HP Pavilion DV6 2160eh (Nvidia GeForce G105M) Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick It used to work fine (in 9.10). Maybe because of control keys are swapped... (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/638638) I can change brightness by set manually in CLI as root which are working fine: #in this case brightness applet gets the new percentage as well (better): acpi_fakekey 224 #bright down by 10% (exec it more times result darker) acpi_fakekey 225 #bright up by 10% (exec it more times result lighter) or #setting this parameter manually does not have an effect on brightness applet cat /proc/acpi/video/VGA1/LCD/brightness # show current values and ranges BRIGHT="50" #values could be: 0-100 echo "$BRIGHT" > /proc/acpi/video/VGA1/LCD/brightness If I set manually the brightness to 50 and I start acpi_listen, then check brightness current parameter in case of keypress # FN+F7 (bright down key): video LCD 0087 - results: current=0 and LCD brightness lighting as maximum until some of the acpi events (eg. power management changes) - pressing more times results nothing else # FN+F8 (bright up key): video LCD 0086 - results: current=10 and brightness goes to that level (10%) - pressing more times results: it is trying to be lighter but after releasing goes back to 10% ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566134 Title: brightness-applet behaviour is good -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I tested the Maverick live CD and the problem is still there, at least on my Toshiba Satellite A300.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. A new version of GNOME Power Manager is available on Maverick and we are wondering if this bug is still an issue for you with that version? Could you please test and comment back?

Same here, Toshiba Satellite A300, nothing else than scrolling works.

Another comment is that any interaction with the brightness applet put automatically the red symbol (like do not smoke) over the brightness symbol... but the mouse wheel scroll over it still work. -- brightness-applet behaviour is good https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566134 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
