Public bug reported: Ubuntu 12.4 on Toshiba C665 Laptop (Nvidia Card) the monotor is too bright [1] LAPTOP SCREEN TOO BRIGHT The brightness is too much I can not look at the screen without squainting my eyes. I Might need sunglasses or a sun screen like in car pasted on top its so difficult to look at the screen Dual booting to Windows 7 is better
[2] BRIGHTNESS CONTROL BUTTONS NOT WORKING The buttons to reduce n increase brightness seem to rise some event the pop up displays a slider going up or down but the brightness does nort change [3] NVIDIA-SETTINGS I can manage some colour change (effecting the brightness in crude way ) but the settings do not seem to stay I have to reset them once every few boot -------------------------------------------------- cat /proc/version_signature > version.log Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic 3.2.14 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-24-generic 3.2.0-24.37 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
