Updated to new version today and it seems that the function keys have been disabled, so I have no brightness controls that are easily available. I can pull it up with the applet, and it still works otherwise. I am on a Gateway NV59 notebook. I do wonder, also, why the brightness levels never start at the correct level on this machine: when I adjust after rebooting, the levels reset themselves to the previous shutdown levels (i.e. reasonably dark), but when the machine is on the Ubuntu splash page up until I've logged in and can control them, it's always at maximum brightness.
I say this, at any rate: thank you very, very much for making this notebook, and others, usable again! I appreciate that you have done this a whole lot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is the registrant for NULL Project. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568611 Title: Screen brightness control fails on Dell Studio 1558 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : registry@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
