Good time of the day, Stefan.

No. May to try to contact manufacturer?

I scarcely know how things are going regarding Your question -
including mine systems. So, all I can add to my previous
words/experience w/ the problem is to try w/ the services that are
running on my Inspiron seems regarding the matter (I am not sure what
everything bellow does, but You can investigate farther or play w/ it)
it started w/ for my run level:

acpi-fakekey

fancontrol

acpid

acpi-support

apmd

loadcpufreq

cpufrequtils

I hope it should work for You - if other earlier mentioned modules have
been loaded - as it works for me.


Sthu.
