- With "normal" default boot command, LCD brigthness keys [Fn]-[F5] and

I think I found a little bit better solution: instead of disabling
features of gnome-power-manager (step #3 in comment #17) just add
"acpi_backlight=vendor" to the same line of grub config (and don't
forget to do "sudo update-grub2" after that). Works for my Asus Eee PC
1005PE (even the panel with

Also problematic in Lucid, but the same "fix" works.

Just to review one more time so that all steps are in here for this
workaround (I hope it will be fixed properly for 10.04 so that
integration with power-manager works)
1. Make sure you are on BIOS 0706. If not:
Just to review the procedure for flashing the BIOS:
1) get 1005P-ASUS-0706.ZIP from ht

2) extract 1005P-ASUS-0706.ROM to a USB stick, being sure to RENAME IT

3) power-on the EEPC1005PE while holding down ALT and tapping F2 repeatedly.

OK, after the clarifications from Isaac Bowen and olofsj, things are
working acceptably for the Fn+hotkey adjustment of the brightness.
It seems what I was seeing was that hidden setting of the gnome-power-
manager mentioned by olofsj. Without the "acpi_osi=Linux" boot option,

I also have the problem with constant dimming. When I switched of all
the dimming settings in gconf-editor under apps > gnome-power-manager >
backlight (there are some settings that are only available here, and not
from the settings applet) this no longer happens. It still happens after

With the acpi_osi option in place, it seems like the brightness is reset
to the last /known/ level after x seconds of no user input (mousemove,
keystroke). Normally wouldn't be a problem, but now that the brightness
set by the function keys is done independently of the power daemon (or
whatever), t
I also see the "mind of its own" brightness changes. It doesn't bother me
as much as the "hit the brighter key and the display turns off" behavior I
saw before, but it ought to be fixed too. I hadn't had time to research it
so I just thought it was the power daemon and could be turned off...if no
The "acpi_osi=Linux" option is not working too well for me.
Just purchased a Eee PC 1005PEB-RRED01S (the red one with the 250GB SATA
HD). Installed UNR 9.10 alongside Win7. I also just upgraded the BIOS
to 0706 (was 0604).
Using the hotkeys, I am able to adjust the brightness level of the

Thanks, it worked for me too!!
Just FYI: I installed Ubuntu 9.10 x64 onto my 1005pe from the Alternate
CD and avoided most of the problems i have read about (keyboard, web
cam, etc).
Anyway, i wanted to add that "acpi_osi=Linux" did NOT work for me until I
updated my BIOS to 0706.

That worked for me!!! Thanks. I'd downloaded the kernel sources and was
about to start mucking about; but the BEST program is one you don't have to
write.
Of course, after changing the file you cd to /boot/grub and run:
$ sudo bash
# grub-mkconfig > grub.cfg

hotkeys adjust brightnes
That might be it. The keys still don't trigger any dbus messages (so no
notify-osd action), and the brightness applet in gnome-panel still
scales erratically, but at least the keys work.

Adding "acpi_osi=Linux" to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT parameter in
/etc/default/grub makes the hotkeys adjust the brightness monotonically
on my 1005pe. I have also updated my bios to version 0706, but I don't
think this made a difference.
In /etc/default/grub I have:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAU
In my case (32 bit) and in the tarball I enclosed with the original bug

/proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCDD/brightness does change; see the typescript.

Can verify this on a new EeePC 1005PE. More than a little odd.
