Same problem here. After updating to the latest version, I cannot adjust
the brightness with the function keys. I can use however the Power
Manager Brightness Applet, or overwrite the value in
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/backlight and thus I can control
the brightness.
I also checked the
Hi Kamal,
I've just noticed a second side effect of the last update of the kernel.
When I suspend the machine (whether by choosing suspend in the power
menu, or by closing the computer's lid) Ubuntu freezes. I have to press
and hold down the power button in order to turn the machine off.
I am att
Hi everyone,
It's me again. This issue with not being able to suspend is driving me crazy.
It's really annoying.
Does any one know how to go back to the previous Kamal-kernel version? I tried
forcing a version in synaptic, but no luck. I also tried choosing a previous
kernel at boot time, but t
Hi Kamal,
Thanks for the new kernel. It's working like a charm!
I still have a question though. With the functions key I am able to set the
brightness to a minimum of 246.
But with $ echo xxx | sudo tee backlight #(the command you recommended in
#113) I am able to go all the way to 0.
Is there

I just had a look again. A value of 0 renders a completely black screen. With a
value of 1 I can start seeing shapes.
Most of the time I work with a brightness between 100 and 200. Since the
functions key won't go that far, I use the prompt line. I thought that a

Hi Kamal,
Me again. This is now weird and somehow embarrassing. This morning I tried
again to set the brightness to 0, and this time I noticed that the screen is
not completely dark. I don't know if yesterday evening I was a bit blind or
what.
Anyhow, definitely with a value of 0 the screen is

Hi Kamal
After updating the kernel (to 2.6.35-23-generic x86_64) minutes ago and
restarting the system, I lost control over brightness again. It worked
with no problems for over a month, but I'm needing sunglasses again! ;-)
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 64 bits in a Lenovo z360.
Any ideas or tipps?
I just updated with the kernel from the PPA from Kamal and we are back to
normal. Thanks a lot.
However, there is something else. One out of 3 or 4 times, when I turn the
computer on I get this weird error.
