Thanks! But any idea why:
>> When pressing FN+F6 I see this in the acpid log. >> But FN+F5 does nothing.So I turned on event logging for my acpid (with -l) and in syslog I only see fnf6, but /not/ fnf5 (if pressed)?!

Hi Knuth I did the following: cat /etc/acpi/events/sony-brightness-up event=sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000011 action=/etc/acpi/sony-brightness.sh up cat /etc/acpi/events/sony-brightness-down event=sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000010 action=/etc/acpi/sony-brightness.sh down cat /etc/acpi/sony-brightness.sh #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; open (my $x, "</proc/acpi/video/GFX0/LCD/brightness"); my @levels; my $level; while(<$x>){ chomp; s/^levels:\s+//&& do { @levels = split /\s+/; }; s/^current:\s+//&& do { $level = $_; }; } close $x; for (my $i=0;$i<= $#levels; $i++){ if ($level == $levels[$i]){ my $val; if ($ARGV[0] eq 'up'){ $i++ } else { $i-- } if ($i>= 0 and $i<= $#levels){ open (my $y, ">/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/LCD/brightness"); print $y $levels[$i]; close $y; } last; } } Yesterday K.

When pressing FN+F6 I see this in the acpid log. But FN+F5 does nothing. Also: What program will actually increase / decrease the intel brightness? The sony laptop module only passes on / generates the acpi button events, or? --> What should happen to increase decrease the brightness? Thanks!! Knuth
