[Bug 81339] Re: Cannot get laptop panel brightness
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 43572 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43572 Can confirm that this is also a problem on a Gateway MX6440 laptop. Running Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid, so it's still a problem after at least two major releases. ** Attachment added: "Gateway MX6440 laptop" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20782085/lshal.txt -- Cannot get laptop panel brightness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/81339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 43572). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 81339] Re: Cannot get laptop panel brightness
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 43572 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43572 I'm having the same problem after upgrading from Hardy to Intrepid. The brightness applet used to display correct info, now it shows 40% after logon and then when I change it it shows the above message on the tooltip. Also, after logon, the display is very bright, I believe it's 100%. On Hardy it used to be the last setting from the previous session. The applet can still change the brightness, it just doesn't display it correctly. The laptop model is Acer Aspire 5101 ANWLMi, so it's not a Dell. I'm not sure if this is a duplicate. -- Cannot get laptop panel brightness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/81339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 43572). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 43572 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43572 Same problem as in the previous two comments. Brightness applet still works to adjust brightness (as it did in 8.04) but now (after installing 8.10) does not show the brightness percentage when hovered over - instead displaying "cannot get laptop panel brightness". (Straight after login, the applet shows the correct brightness of 100% but as soon as the slider is adjusted the problem presents itself.) This does not seem to be a duplicate of #43572. The problem did not exist until 8.10 was installed and also, in this case, is affecting a Sony VGN-FS315M laptop not a Dell. -- Cannot get laptop panel brightness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/81339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 43572). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 43572 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43572 I ditto Sandro Mani's comment; I can still adjust brightness via the slider or the keys (just as I could in 8.04), but now I see "Cannot get laptop panel brightness" when hovering over the brightness applet since upgrading to 8.10 yesterday.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 43572 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43572 I get the result described in this bug in Intrepid 8.10 (used to work in 8.04). I am not quite sure if the issue I am experiencing is the same as the one described in bug #43572. Changing the slider in the applet actually does set the screen brightness correctly, but the applet fails to show the percentage (displaying "Cannot get laptop panel brightness") for any level below 100%.
