Okay guys, thanks for your consideration. It looks like we're all experiencing this issue on the following hardware products running Ubuntu: Dell E and XPS series & HP DV6t QE7000. Looking at the list of Ubuntu's releases, it looks like 11.04 (Natty) will be EOLed soon, more exactly October 2012.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases I'm quite sure there won't be any fix for Natty, but I hope there will be for 12.04 as this is a long term support release. Cheers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/847001 Title: Adjusting display brightness is very slow on several Dell laptops To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/847001/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
