Aloha there! Well, in a certain way it calms me, that I'm not the only one around with a nice Vaio Lappy I need sunglasses for ;-) It's a FZ18M, nVidia 8400M GT.
Before I installed Hardy Heron (Kernel 2.6.24-16; nVidia drivers 169.12) I had Windows XP running besides Win Vista. The fn-keys did'nt work either -- BUT... With a slight modification of the driver's inf-file it was possible to adjust the LCD's brightness through the nVidia control center! It's definitely a driver problem, isn't it? The most other forums I browsed say the same. So we'll have to wait for nVidia :-( smartdimmer, nvclock, xbacklight, spicctrl and all these neat tool are more or less useless :-/ -- unable to adjust screen brightness on recent Sony Vaio notebooks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/173652 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
