James, How did you modify grub for backlighting? Is there a thread or a wiki page on how to do it? I never did get it to work on my Thinkpad 510 with Lucid or Maverick. Until I get better dependability on my desktop, I can't risk my laptop. Joe On 03/27/2011 10:58 AM, James Gifford wrote:

+1 for this idea. I know that mine fails this test - I have to modify GRUB in order to get it working properly on my Asus Eee PC 1001P. Cheers, James Gifford http://jamesrgifford.com @jrgifford On Mar 27, 2011, at 12:41, Chad Davis wrote: > I've been going through the laptop tests in prepara

Laptop testing: Backlight test needed

2011-03-27 Thread Chad Davis
I've been going through the laptop tests in preparation for the Natty beta release next week. I noticed that there is no test for backlight dimming. This would be useful to test. It can make a big different on the battery life. My HP Envy 14 passes, but my MacbookPro.2 fails. Cheers, Chad -- Ubu
