Same here. It's been like since I updated the kernel (one provided @ https://launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/+archive/linux-kamal-mjgbacklight to correct a problem with the screen brightness). Besides that, in Google Chrome and Chromium, when I click on Tools/View_Background_Pages, the program freezes

Hi Kamal, Me again. This is now weird and somehow embarrassing. This morning I tried again to set the brightness to 0, and this time I noticed that the screen is not completely dark. I don't know if yesterday evening I was a bit blind or what. Anyhow, definitely with a value of 0 the screen is

@Kamal I just had a look again. A value of 0 renders a completely black screen. With a value of 1 I can start seeing shapes. Most of the time I work with a brightness between 100 and 200. Since the functions key won't go that far, I use the prompt line. I thought that a solution to my question

Hi Kamal, Thanks for the new kernel. It's working like a charm! I still have a question though. With the functions key I am able to set the brightness to a minimum of 246. But with $ echo xxx | sudo tee backlight #(the command you recommended in #113) I am able to go all the way to 0. Is there

Hi everyone, It's me again. This issue with not being able to suspend is driving me crazy. It's really annoying. Does any one know how to go back to the previous Kamal-kernel version? I tried forcing a version in synaptic, but no luck. I also tried choosing a previous kernel at boot time, but t

Hi Kamal, I've just noticed a second side effect of the last update of the kernel. When I suspend the machine (whether by choosing suspend in the power menu, or by closing the computer's lid) Ubuntu freezes. I have to press and hold down the power button in order to turn the machine off. I am att

Same problem here. After updating to the latest version, I cannot adjust the brightness with the function keys. I can use however the Power Manager Brightness Applet, or overwrite the value in /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/backlight and thus I can control the brightness. I also checked the

I just updated with the kernel from the PPA from Kamal and we are back to normal. Thanks a lot. However, there is something else. One out of 3 or 4 times, when I turn the computer on I get this weird error. 1. When booting up, the kernel ring buffer is printed out on the screen. This usually do

Hi Kamal After updating the kernel (to 2.6.35-23-generic x86_64) minutes ago and restarting the system, I lost control over brightness again. It worked with no problems for over a month, but I'm needing sunglasses again! ;-) I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64 bits in a Lenovo z360. Any ideas or tipps?
