[Bug 71204] Re: Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60
Exactly the same on my Z60t with Feisty, 2.6.20-16-generic -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71204 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
[Bug 71204] Re: Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60
Having exactly the same problem in Feisty on my T60p. I rebooted in my old Edgy installation and was surprised to find out that it was worse there. The bar shows about 70% on AC and the brightness keys don't change the brightness. Note that in both Edgy and feisty, /etc/modprobe.d/ibm_acpi.modprobe contains options ibm_acpi hotkey=enable,0xff9f experimental=1 -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71204 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 have this problem too. The brightness as reported in /proc/acpi/ibm/brightness is probably where the on-screen-display is getting the value, but for some reason this is not reporting the true brightness of the screen. I believe that adding the experimental=1 argument when loading the ibm-acpi module may correct the issue. See http://ibm-acpi.sourceforge.net/ for more info. I have this working in gentoo with the tpb daemon. -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71204 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

FWIW, hotkey-setup seems to be responsible for drawing the volume popup (see #88029), so might be responsible for this popup as well. -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://launchpad.net/bugs/71204 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Great. Now we just need to figure out what package is responsible for drawing this window. ** Changed in: Ubuntu Assignee: Andrew Ash = (unassigned) -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://launchpad.net/bugs/71204 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 71204] Re: Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60
Let me see if I've got this straight. Adjusting screen brightness with the hardware buttons changes the brightness of the screen. It also triggers a window to appear that displays the brightness level. The problem is that no matter what the actual brightness of the screen, the popup stays on half-full with battery and full when on AC adapter. Is that correct? ** Changed in: Ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) = Andrew Ash -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://launchpad.net/bugs/71204 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I haven't seen this popup so far. So I am sure it was not there(or not working) in Dapper, on the same machine. I haven't used others distros on this machine, but if I find time for testing I will try with some LiveCds. -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://launchpad.net/bugs/71204 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for the bug report. Did this popup not appear in previous versions of Ubuntu? Does it work correctly in other distributions of linux? ** Changed in: Ubuntu Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- Screen Brightness Little Pop-up window does not show the correct Brightness on a Thinkpad x60 https://launchpad.net/bugs/71204 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
