I can do it by using nvidia settings, but the dimming is different from the one you get when pressing Fn + the dimming keys on a text console (btw, this is a weird behavior: I cannot do key-based dimming when X is running). > http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/power-management-guide.xml Yep, I looked there, but the example don't apply to my laptop model :( Thanks.
