*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 215217 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215217
I've noticed that when you blacklist the video module, g-p-m reads correctly the laptop_panel.brightness_in_hardware key (which should be true for these laptops). On the other hand, when the video module is not blacklisted, I get "not found. Assuming false". So, that's why blacklisting the video module fixes this brightness problem in g-p-m for you. I *think* (please devs comment on this) the problem is g-p-m not reading the laptop_panel.brightness_in_hardware key correctly, and that should be the fix for this bug. I'm attaching g-p-m verbose output after loading it (video module not blacklisted). ** Attachment added: "gnome-power-manager.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17627453/gnome-power-manager.txt -- fn buttons dim and brighten screen to fast https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
