[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dmidecode -s system-manufacturer Gateway [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name MX6917J [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dmidecode -s system-version 3402689R Brightness is either 0 or 100, no intermediate values. BIOS graphic that pops up during changing the brightness with the hot keys is okay, does not garble anything. Rest of the hot keys for Wireless, Volume, Caps Lock/Num Lock etc work fine. Bluetooth does not work though.

[Bug 149547] Re: [gutsy] Screen brightness works only at certain values.
This bug was nominated for Gutsy but does currently not qualify for a 7.10 stable release update (SRU) and the nomination is therefore declined. According the the SRU policy, the fix should already be deployed and tested in the current development version before an update to the stable releases will be considered. With 7.10 now released, that policy applies to this bug. See: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates . The bug is not being closed as work will continue on fixing it for the next release, Hardy Heron (8.04). If the state of this bug should change such that it qualifies for the SRU process, please contact the person who originally declined it and ask them to re-evaluate it.

Hello, I haven't checked my email in a bit and I just saw your bug fix for the HAL issue in Gutsy. I wanted to thank you for responding. I am going to try the fix tonight when I get home from work and see if it can correct my issues.

[Bug 149547] Re: [gutsy] Screen brightness works only at certain values.
I'm also having this problem with a Gateway MP8709 with Intel 945 chipset. This bug looks related/duplicate of: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/121833 Seems as though there are 8-9 discrete backlight levels listed in /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness: levels: 100 37 12 25 37 50 62 75 87 100 current: 0 but whatever is handling the ACPI brightness events is jumping in steps of 5%, missing 12, 37, 62 and 87. The other bug referenced mentions that echo'ing an invalid value to /proc/.../brightness will error/fail but /sys/class/backlight/XXX/brightness will accept the bad value and essentially turn the backlight off. -- [gutsy] Screen brightness works only at certain values. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this issue to be present on my Gateway NX560x with the Intel 945 graphics chipset. Others have also seen this problem as per http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=580535";>this thread. My display works at certain percentage ranges as noted in the first post.

I assume this has something to do with the kernel.
