Cool I'm also using mate 16.04 ;D pity you don't have the /sys/class/backligt/acpi_video0(sure you don't have it? using standard ubuntu kernel?) I made tow scripts that can lower and higher the brightness but they depends on acpi_video0 directory. I'm learning to program in c end linux kernel programing to get that hp_wmi driver to read the key code or whatever rigt, and there is a problem with the blue-light wifi button. the get the wifi up going after that is a pain in the as. most reboot the computer and run:
[code/]run ip ip link set wlp7s0 up rfkill unblock all[/code] sometimes it works somtimes not just reboot and try again.. I like to get all the keys to function, and I'm gonna do it my self. wmi driver is old and not so functional except for the volume and play and paus still work with is grate, there are approximately 8 key that are not working or is kind of buggy working, like one key that worked sometimes but sometimes not -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448485 Title: [Compaq Presario CQ60-300EO Notebook PC] kernel doesn't recognize backlight fn keys Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 and fn+f7 and fn+f8 use to lower and higher the brightness of the screen.
