It appears this bug is fairly well known. Here's an article called "Fix Brightness Control Not Working for Ubuntu 14.04 & Linux Mint 17" at http://itsfoss.com/fix-brightness-ubuntu-1310/ . Unfortunately, the fix listed is only for the Intel Video card.
For what its worth, the brightness control worked fine on this laptop with Ubuntu 10.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318314 Title: brightness adjustment does not work on Thinkpad E145 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1318314/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
