** Description changed: The Dell M1330 backlight has exactly 8 levels of brightness. I expect each press of the brightness adjustment keys to change the brightness by one level. When I use the keyboard to adjust the brightness in GNOME, it sometimes changes by one level, and sometimes changes by two levels. In Karmic, the buttons worked like I have describe above. In Lucid, everything worked correctly. In Maverick (and every subsequent release at least through Precise), we're back to the same behavior as in Karmic. So this is a regression in functionality. --- Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release amd64 (20110427.1) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia wl Package: acpid 1:2.0.7-1ubuntu2 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/zsh ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-11.48-generic 2.6.38.8 Tags: natty running-unity Uname: Linux 2.6.38-11-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout fuse lpadmin plugdev sambashare + --- + ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 + Architecture: amd64 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: ryan 2465 F.... pulseaudio + CurrentDesktop: Unity + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=e00b6e22-9d5b-45f4-a861-8fa38e5ae470 + InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-06-15 (153 days ago) + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) + MachineType: Dell Inc.
