Joseph, I installed the kernel image and the header packages per your
link.
terry@terry-eMachines-E725:~$ uname -a
Linux terry-eMachines-E725 3.3.0-030300rc4-generic #201202181935 SMP Sun Feb 19
00:36:30 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
oo
This did not change anything. A regular boot still has a black screen which I
can barely see the login prompt.
The key board brightness does not work. I can login, hear the startup sound,
but the screen is still black.
Again, a flashlight faintly shows my desktop.
Using the boot paremeter acpi_osi=Linux boots alowing my brightness keys
to show a screen (although they are reversed)
Thanks,
Terry
