@AndreaV - Thanks for contributing those scripts! @adam - its unlikely that the backlight brightness patch would affect the boot time of your Natty system -- its possible that the issue you're experiencing relates to something else in the (fast moving) Natty beta kernel. If you can determine whether the problem you're seeing is actually specific to the backlight PPA versus the same (non-PPA) version of the Natty kernel, please let me know (you can use 'uname -a' to examine the exact versions of the kernel's you're using).
@Hendy, @Prateek - I understand that the PPA doesn't provide a fully functional solution for KDE yet. I will be re-examining the KDE situation soon. @Nicholas - The PPA is suitable for Ubuntu Maverick and Natty (but not for Lucid, which you appear to be running). You'll have to upgrade to Maverick if you wish to use the PPA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568611 Title: Screen brightness control fails on Dell Studio 1558 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
