Public bug reported: I can't adjust the brightness and my laptop turns really hot. I try installing nvidia-current but what it just did was change the resolution of my laptop to 800X600, so what i did to change it back was to delete the xorg.conf in the /etc/X11 directory and uninstall nvidia-current and nvidia-settings. I also try installing the driver that i downloaded from nvidia website(NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.59) and still got the same problem and again i uninstall it but using the command nvidia- uninstaller. My major problem here is that i dont have a driver or I installed it but doesn't working that manages my nvidia GEFORCE GT540M graphics card that is why even if i'm just browsing my computer turns hot that it will automaitcally shutdown. Please help and thank you in advance.
