I'm having the same problem after upgrading from Hardy to Intrepid. The brightness applet used to display correct info, now it shows 40% after logon and then when I change it it shows the above message on the tooltip. Also, after logon, the display is very bright, I believe it's 100%. On Hardy it used to be the last setting from the previous session. The applet can still change the brightness, it just doesn't display it correctly. The laptop model is Acer Aspire 5101 ANWLMi, so it's not a Dell. I'm not sure if this is a duplicate. -- Cannot get laptop panel brightness https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/81339 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber (via bug 43572). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
