You have been subscribed to a public bug: Fully updated fresh install of 12.04 on Lenovo T510 laptop with the nvidia graphics card. Standard keyboard (fn+home/end) are responsive from the gui, but no change occurs. Using the brightness tool in the settings is also ineffective. Attempted numerous fixes found online (grub entry, xorg.conf entry, etc.) but no positive effect.
