Reuben Thomas, that's not how bug reporting works for linux (Ubuntu). If you don't have the hardware, there is nothing for anyone to look into regarding this report.
Regarding two other people who marked themselves affected, they would need to file a new report, as advised in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs . ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/939862 Title: [Samsung NP-NC10-KA01AE] Brightness control no longer works properly Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: The Fn+Brightness keys on the Samsung NC-10, which need a quirk to work, did not work with any Oneiric kernel until 3.0.0-15. This appears to be because (according to the Changelog) a quirk was added to that version. Previously, I had been using the latest natty kernel, which continued to work. Unfortunately, though I can see nothing relevant in the Changelog, 3.0.0-16 breaks this functionality again: the brightness controls allow only the minimum, minimum + 1, and maximum brightness levels to be set, but nothing intermediate.
