from a custom 2.6.30-rc8 kernel in Xorg.0.log:

I have the lattest nvidia driver (185.18). In case it wasn't clear,
brightness doesn't work.

Try to boot into windows if you still can and enable the touchpad. I've
just tried and it worked. I've read something similar for the media
touchpad on the side on my laptop. You have to have it enabled to have
it work. You can disabled it after and re-enable it. You just need to
have it enabled at start.

I've just looked at the changelog for the 2.6.27 kernel, and there's no
mention of brightness in patch 10 and 11. Maybe something completely
different is interfering. There seems to be some patch with brightness
in the patch 15 and 16. For an unknown reason I can't compile kernels,
but if you can try to see if it gets solved.

Public bug reported:

Since the 2.6.27-11 generic kernel (also in 2.6.27-12) I cannot change
the backlight brightness anymore. In the latest kernel, it seems there's
no more file in /proc/acpi/video, but GFX0 still apears in 2.6.27-9
where I can still change brightness. I'm new to linux so if you need
information give me the command to run. It's an acer 6920G laptop.

2009-04-07 Thread Marc-André Turcotte
I'm still pretty new to linux, but first I would say  that since it
works again in 27-29, it should someday in the 28 series also. I don't
really understand what's the problem with restricted drivers and a
mainline kernel since sound and compiz effects worked with no problem
when I tried. Maybe you could try to compile your own kernel.

To make sure it gets solved, I would guess we need to also check kernels
between 27-14 and 27-19 to know where it was solved and send that info
to the kernel team. I don't know if it works that way, I'm just
guessing.

grep gave me nothing like you said. Here's the dmesg log.

In the acer-wmi folder, there's only: a link to device folder, power
folder, a link to subsystem folder, and 5 files I cannot read with
gedit: actual_brightness, bl_power, brightness, max_brightness, uevent.
Is there another way you think I could write something in these files?
