I think the issue here is the same as the mail thread I linked in comment 16. Affected users can try adding the "brightness_in_hardware" hal key to their fdi file to see if it fixes it. See the mail thread for more information and "/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10 -laptop-panel-hardware.fdi" for an example. If adding this key (without brightness_switch_enabled option) fixes the problem, then your hardware is broken and we need a quirk.
Also note that g-p-m will no longer use HAL in Maverick so I don't know what the workaround will be there. -- Brightness up/down key sensibility on fujitsu u9200 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/352699 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
