You can find it under http://bwalexh.wordpress.com/2009/05/03/new- ubuntu-thinkpad-notification-program/ If for some reason you don't have /proc/acpi/video/VID but rather /proc/acpi/video/VID1 and don't have brightness notifications, change this line: #define BRIGHTNESS_NEW_NODE "/proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness" to whatever applies to you. Johannes, I don't doubt that this a bug somewhere; I don't care. Linux and linux distro developers are lazy and pretty much don't know what they are doing, this is after all how this bug appeared in first place. I am not going to wait for someone to fix a bug or even find it myself when I can produce a workaround for it in just under 30 minutes. You are free to use it or not, it's your choice, but considering that the bug priority is 'low' I wouldn't expect a fix anytime soon.
