[Bug 538256] Re: Screen brightness not controllable on Lenovo Ideapad S10-3 and U350

[Martin Emrich]

Hi!

I don't yet feel ready to install the development version of Ubuntu on
my netbook (I usually do this ca. 2-3 months before release date).

The issue is still present in Lucid. I am currently running Kernel
2.6.34 directly from kernel.org (built using make-kpkg), and the xorg-
edgers X.Org packages, and I am still unable to control the brightness
using the hotkeys (the setpci command still works).

If someone could explain how the brightness changes are supposed to
happen (Which components are involved, e.g. Kernel/KMS, DDX, xorg-
server, ACPI stuff,...), I would be happy to dig a little deeper.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
