I managed to fine-tune the LCD brightness to a greater degree by adding the 'Brightness Applet' to the Gnome Panel. 1.Right-click a specified location on the Gnome Panel and select 'Add to Panel...' 2.Select 'Brightness Applet'.
To achieve 7 adjustable levels of brightness on the function keys (instead of the usual 3), and to keep the LCD brightness from being set at the maximum after every reboot: 1.In a terminal, type “gksudo gedit”. 2.Open the file “/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist”. 3.Add a new line “blacklist video”. 4.Reduce brightness to mimimum (or desired level). 5.Reboot. -- Laptop TFT monitor - brightness level is not saved https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35223 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
