Hi Robert, I'm sorry you're having difficulties in applying my workaround to your environment. I suggest you try to find out whether halevt functions properly by running it in the foreground: $ sudo /etc/init.d/halevt stop $ sudo -u halevt halevt -fig plugdev Now if you press the brightness

Thanks for the feedback. Everything was OK, I just did not restart for a long time ago... now I have restarted halevt, and the keys do work now, but notifyOSD does not show the notifications :( -- Brightness adjustment doesn't work for HP ProBook 4720s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592592 You

This bug affects me too, on a HP Probook 4710s. I have tried the ideas you've suggested - something happened, because the brightness notification appeared once, but since than, it does not work. So it worked on the first keypress - displayed the notification. -- Brightness adjustment doesn't
