[Bug 172985] Re: LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet
acpi fake key does not generate an acpi event. It generates a keyboard event. Now brightness is still broken in hardy and it is being worked. But using the thinkpad-acpi interface to change the brightness instead of the (currently broken) acpi interface is not recommended in the thinkpad-acpi notes. -- LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 172985] Re: LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet
This is still an issue with Hardy... I did some reading and apparently the ACPI issue is due to Ubuntu developers messing around with Thinkpad ACPI calls / keys. The Thinkpad ACPI developer specific wrote about this (I'll try to find the link) and how this is a bad idea. -- LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I know it it is a pretty miserable fix, but: 1) I seem to get all the various brightness levels with this modifications on my X61 Tablet, model 7764-CTO 2) acpi-support is installed; I can run acpi_fakekey, but acpi_fakekey 224 or 225 does nothing, and does not generate any entries in /var/log/acpid -- LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yea, acpi_fakekey is in 'acpi-support' as well, if you don't have that installed yer not gonna get very far. ;) -- LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

My problem seemed to be because I was missing '/usr/share/acpi-support', which is provided by the package 'acpi-support'. apt-get install acpi-support and you should be good to go. -- LCD Brightness buttons do not work on Thinkpad X61 Tablet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is not a proper fix .. but a hack around the real issue. This also does not give the various brightness levels.
