I've reinstalled Ubuntu 9.10 from scratch (CD), updated up-front and installed the ATI drivers. Still not working. Brightness and lid operations work fine for a few minutes than stop working.
Just to let it clear, suspend and hibernate work perfectly when choosing it from the shutdown menu. ACPI is working fine, the problem seems to be recognizing the buttons. I ran the lid.sh while the lid was close (via timer) and saw that it never passes this line: if [ `CheckPolicy` = 0 ]; then exit; fi I believe it's the Gnome messing up the configuration, rather than ACPI being faulty. I'll try to kill most gnome applications after the problem appears and see if one of them is the guilty part. -- Dell Studio 1555: cannot change display brightness after a while, other hotkeys and ACPI stuff begin to fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392812 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
