My results on Intrepid... I installed apw's kernel on an SL300 type 2738-53G running Intrepid, and it disabled brightness adjustment completely, both with keys and with the Gnome brightness applet.
e...@ubuntu:~$ cat /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCDD/brightness <not supported> The current Intrepid kernel has reversed brightness keys. Going for lunch now... ** Tags added: gbj-uk-0902 -- thinkpad brightness controls reversed (please implement fix from fedora dudes) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301524 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
