Been having the same problems here with my Samsung netbook (model NB30). I have tried the recommendation in comment #2 i.e. "sudo apt-get install --reinstall samsung-backlight easy-slow-down-manager phc-intel"
Have got to reboot yet. Hopefully that will solve the problems on the Samsung NB30. I've also had problems with the wireless that stops working sometimes. -- brightness control did not work after latest kernel update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
