Hello,
I have Ubuntu 8.10 on a Dell Inspiron B130 (1300) laptop. When I use
the hardware brightness control (Fn+ Arrow Up/Down) with Gnome running,
the OSD pops up and moves erratically, and then most elements of the
interface lock up, including the keyboard and most of the icons fail to
respond. The OSD brightness indicator does not go away either. I have
to Ctl+Alt+Backspace to restart X. The volume control OSD works
correctly as expected. The brightness controls function normally when I
am not running Gnome. Additionally, the Gnome brighness panel applet
causes the same interface lockup problems. I did not have this issue
with Ubuntu 8.04.
Thanks for the help!
