[Bug 538256] Re: Screen brightness not controllable on Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 and U350
Thanks, Daniel. I'm not skilled enough to develop the script. And I don't mind having a lag between the action and the effect while it works at all.

@splashis: You can still improve the script. I also did some fine tuning on step size after I posted the script here. A perfect solution for step size would be a logarithmic approach, but it will still not satisfy in sense of response speed. -- Screen brightness not controllable on Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 and U350 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538256 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 538256] Re: Screen brightness not controllable on Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 and U350
Included is a very dirty solution that really has poor performance (1-2 sec for action to take place), but in my opinion it is much better that typing commands on the shell to adjust brightness. Attached is a bash script to handle the event generated by the /etc/acpi/events/ideapad-video that must be created with following content: #BEGIN-- # /etc/acpi/events/ideapad-video # Called when the user presses the brightness fn-keys # event=video action=/etc/acpi/ideapad-video.sh %e #END-- Should be possible to to also develop an executable with better performance, but I still hope that ACPI will be fixed in a later version ubuntu. The acpi_fakekey command in fact gives no results, maybe someone knows hot to let ubuntu resond graphically in some way as it does with volume up/down. Comments and improvements are welcome.

Hi Martin, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 538256 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.] ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Screen brightness not controllable on Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 and U350 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538256 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

Hi! I don't yet feel ready to install the development version of Ubuntu on my netbook (I usually do this ca. 2-3 months before release date). The issue is still present in Lucid. I am currently running Kernel 2.6.34 directly from kernel.org (built using make-kpkg), and the xorg- edgers X.Org packages, and I am still unable to control the brightness using the hotkeys (the setpci command still works). If someone could explain how the brightness changes are supposed to happen (Which components are involved, e.g. Kernel/KMS, DDX, xorg- server, ACPI stuff,...), I would be happy to dig a little deeper. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing -- Screen brightness not controllable on Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 and U350 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538256 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
