It worked perfectly (ie. incremented by one from 0 to 15) in regular 12.04 installed from alternate cd from Ubuntu's website. The computer came with Windows pre-installed.
More than that, it still works perfectly during boot, before the graphical interface comes up. I have whole-disk encryption enabled and it seems to be working on the screen for password entry. Let me know what other info I can provide, or what I should double- check. I can boot 12.04 from a pendrive too, if that helps somehow. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069357 Title: Hardware keys change backlight brightness in much larger increments/steps than expected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1069357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
