Yes Damian, amcccle is for Radeon boards. I just added this information since Liviu has Intel/Radeon hybrid graphics according to his lspci and just to add some info on this thread. In this machine (Asus 1015bx) I don't have any issue with screen brightness with the open source driver or with fglrx with VariBright disabled.

Once he stops, the people give him food, entertain him. That is one aspect of Ubuntu but it will have various aspects. Ubuntu does not mean that people should not address themselves.
