I have the studio 1558, brightness control problem going on.

I added the repository with: 
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kamalmostafa/linux-kamal-mjgbacklight/ppa

Then I did:
sudo apt-get update

It still wouldn't work, so I ran this: 
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I guess I'll reboot, and see if it works.

PS I noticed I could "manually" add the ppa with this:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kamalmostafa/linux-kamal-mjgbacklight/ubuntu 
maverick main 
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kamalmostafa/linux-kamal-mjgbacklight/ubuntu 
maverick main 

How is that different from what I've done?
