Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Hello, Ubuntu geeks. I have a kinda old laptop. Just installed Ubuntu 10.10 Mavericks but I come across some problems. Most inportantly is the brightness control problem. My laptop has 8 levels adjustment settings. But only 4 levels can be adjust when I press Fn+F7 and FN+F8 to change to the maximum or minimum. I think this is a bug and wanna solve it, so I reported here. I used this command below to check the brightness levels info in the /proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD03/brightness. cat '/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD03/brightness It returns these values below. levels: 13 25 38 50 63 75 88 100 current: 63 And I checked the /proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD03/EDID, it's empty. Is this normal or Ubuntu hasn't recognized my laptop LCD correctly? I did dmesg|tail -5 command and it returns this below. [ 2025.850319] EXT4-fs (sda4): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro,commit=0 [ 2772.758260] ACPI: Please implement acpi_video_bus_ROM_seq_show [ 2772.937960] ACPI: Please implement acpi_video_bus_ROM_seq_show [ 2775.236182] ACPI: Please implement acpi_video_bus_ROM_seq_show [ 2785.830043] ACPI: Please implement acpi_video_bus_ROM_seq_show Ismod attached. Please help me make this amazing OS run flawlessly on my laptop. Thanks in advance. ** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/692421 Title: gnome-power-manager brightness levels are not right -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
