Just to review one more time so that all steps are in here for this workaround (I hope it will be fixed properly for 10.04 so that integration with power-manager works)
1. Make sure you are on BIOS 0706. If not: Just to review the procedure for flashing the BIOS: 1) get 1005P-ASUS-0706.ZIP from http://support.asus.com/download 2) extract 1005P-ASUS-0706.ROM to a USB stick, being sure to RENAME IT 1005P.ROM 3) power-on the EEPC1005PE while holding down ALT and tapping F2 repeatedly. The update then occurs automatically. 2. Change this line in /etc/default/grub by doing sudo nano /etc/default/grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_osi=Linux" Then: sudo -s cd /boot/grub grub-mkconfig > grub.cfg 3. In order to keep your brightness and adjust it manually: disable both "enable" and "batter_reduce" under apps > gnome-power-manager > backlight in gconf-editor (which you start by alt-f2 and typing gconf-editor) -- hotkeys adjust brightness non-monotonically on EEEPC 1005PE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512567 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
