By the way, is there any way to switch the Nvidia output between panel and monitor modes directly from X? В Птн, 24/10/2008 в 03:32 +, Leann Ogasawara пишет: > Hi Wildy, > > Thanks for testing and the update. It would seem this specific issue is > resolved with Intrepid. >

Okay, on my Arch Q70 laptop, with a 2.6.27 custom-built kernel, I can now adjust brightness from the console with Fn+Up/Dn keys. X recognizes these keys also, but the Nvidia X driver wouldn't let to change the screen brightness from within X (this issue is really LONG aged). The issue is definitely

Hi! You just need to cat the value while in textmode. Just switch to another VT, log in and then use 'sudo su -', then cat it into /proc/acpi/video/NVID/LCD/brightness. Supposingly, the NVidia drivers prohibit ACPI interfacing when you're in X. WBR, Yuri В Втр, 29/07/2008 в 20:51 +, Baju пиш

OK, any updates there?? Still no luck with 2.6.24-18-generic, which was kind of expected :) I'll try to build a custom kernel today... maybe this is fixed in the fresh upstream version? Anyway, this bug _needs_ more attention. BTW, the backlight resets when the ACPI modules are loaded. Also, th
