------- Comment #10 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-04-16 08:11 ------- Hi, I'm junior user jidanni. You see I was just about to submit this Debian bug Package: xserver-xorg-core Version: 2:1.4.1~git20080131-3 I note when one leaves X windows for tty1 via ALT CTRL F1, and then returns to X windows via ALT F1 (or ALT CTL F1), the screen is now at full brightness. One has to manually set it back to the way it was. My computer is an IBM Thinkpad R50e. Brightness is diminshed by hitting "Fn End". Other times I find myself having to turn the brightness back down again: power up, starting xdm, etc.. Seems the current brightness settings are not being saved, if indeed there is such a place in hardware to do that -- and not being saved even for a brief trip to tty1 and back. Here is what gets appended: ...(WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)... When I thought maybe I should install acpid, even though I never suspend, etc. OK, after installing acpid my brightness is remembered, at least for visiting tty1 so far, but now I see these messages: (EE) intel(0): write to /sys/class/backlight/thinkpad_screen/brightness for backlight control failed: Invalid argument Just wanted to let you know. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
