The fix that was introduced here is just simple ignoring of Fn+Brightness keys in hal or lately in udev rules.
But it is not fully close the problem: 1. When brightness is adjusted by keys it is go up or down 2 steps from one keypressing. 2. Everytime brightness is adjusted 'Unknown key pressed' messeges is logged. And since this bug not only related to WSI Wind but clones too, upgrading the BIOS is not the solution for everyone. The patch from 527157 is fixed this and others my issues with brightness (on LG X110) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/415023 Title: brightness is broken on MSI WIND U100 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
