I discovered this was a problem on my laptop in Gutsy, it would dim the display even though I was using the machine... at the time I did find a bug on launchpad, but can't find it now. I think that the closest I came to a resolution was setting both the power and battery brightness settings to the same and unchecking any dimming options. I haven't revisited this in many moons so I will have another look when Hardy is released - it might sound daft but I can't work out now whether I'm now a happy customer or just learnt to ignore it. Please let us know whether you find a solution! - -- Stephen O'Neill w: http://www.thefloatingfrog.co.uk/ e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIBvYyJ+Auntu1v4QRAgvJAJsFvHmP8/aRSYMsoFHU86V2jh75dACeMlkq YwcebWB7zifrVMCLnPnr8M0= =c3CN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
