Adding more backlight with Fn+End causes the brightness go down. Fn+Home vice versa. But the logic of controlling backlight is inverted. So the gnome brightness indicator is comming down when brightness is increasing and up, when decreasing. Also, when inactive for several minutes, powersaving sets brightnes to maximum, as it may think, its minimum.

Simply put, Fn+up does what Fn+down should do (makes the screen dimmer), and Fn+down does what Fn+up should do (make the screen brighter). It also seems to skip a brightness level (only five brightness levels). There is no slider for screen brightness under System - Power Manager. Release: Ubuntu 8.04 beta Package version: 2.22.1-1ubuntu4 Expect to happen: Fn+up makes screen brighter, Fn+down makes screen dimmer What actually happens: Fn+up makes screen dimmer, Fn+down makes screen brighter. Kernel: 2.6.24-16-generic Gfx card: Intel GM965/GL960 Machine: Lenovo Ideapad Y510 Not sure if I need to post more info.
