(if You dont know it already) For acpi config You'll need "event id" try running acpi_listen. eg. /etc/acpi/events/sleep: event=ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001004 action=/etc/acpi/actions/sleep.sh and into actions you put scripts, try using xbacklight. If You wouldn't have any reaction in xev and acpi_listen i check the option in kernel. -- Bartosz Szatkowski KeyFP: 1568 D5A7 B14C 0727 1C61 ACFB ABDE C08A DDB7 1F70 The freedom to redistribute copies of a program so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2)
