Re: [Bug 173652] Re: Unable to adjust screen brightness on recent Sony Vaio notebooks, Intel GMA adapter

On Jaunty with latest updates I now get 9 steps for the backlight with the
Fn key combination.
When I installed (Alpha 3) there were only 5 steps, so some update changed
it.
9 steps (while an odd number) is working a lot better now, and much more
usable because the difference between the steps is not so drastic.
I think its working very well now.

With xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL native I can adjust
my lcd brightness using xbacklight by I am still unable to get my
function keys detected.

I have a sony vaio VGN-CR220e I wonder when my laptop's function keys
will be supported by linux

 I have a fairly recent model: Sony VGN-NR498E, Intel X3100.

 With a fresh install of 8.10, the function keys cause the backlight OSD
 to move up and down properly, however there is no adjustment to the
 backlight.

 If I use the command xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL
 native,  I can immediately adjust brightness with the function keys.
 With native, I am subject to what I believe above is being called the
 oscillation bug.  This setup is non-functional. Also, with native, if I
 click the power manager icon, the power manager doesn't respond.

 On the other hand, If i use the command xrandr --output LVDS --set
 BACKLIGHT_CONTROL legacy, I have brightness control with the function
 keys, and I don't have the oscillation problem.  Some other events do
 adjust brightness (and leave it that way) though, such as going to
 preferences of the power manager dims the display.

 With either BACKLIGHT_CONTROL setting, I don't have to use the
 xbacklight command at all, and I don't have xbacklight installed.

 At the moment, BACKLIGHT_CONTROL legacy is the only tolerable
 situation.
