Public bug reported: I've got a Dell Inspiron 1520 with an LCD monitor with 1440x900. In Windows XP/Vista, when I press the Fn+Down/Up key, I can change the brightness of the LCD display in 6 steps from loweset to highest. In 64-bit Ubuntu 8.04 which I'm using, I can only change the brightness in 3 steps. Lowest, mid, high. The graphics card is a GeForce 8600M GT, and I'm using nvidia's propriety drivers 173.14.05.
So basically I want 6 levels of brightness that I can choose from within Ubuntu/Gnome, as I can do in Windows XP. ** Affects: gnome-desktop (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Too few levels of brightness on laptop LCD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246369 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
