If KPowersave say it's not supported, the reason is normaly that the kernel (or HAL if your hardware use a special and not the generic kernel backlight interface in sysfs) doesn't support your hardware. Maybe you need to load a special kernel module. For Toshiba e.g. you can try to load the omnibook kernel module (you may need to restart HAL and KPowersave after load the module). Close the bug now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Rolf Eike Beer (dakon) Date: 2007-09-20 13:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=152186 Originator: NO This normally is caused by HAL not supporting your hardware. For my Toshiba A110-178 the module omnibook helped. I can now dim the display by scrolling the mouse on the systray icon. This is not a bug in KPowersave at all, this is missing support for your hardware (i.e. a kernel problem). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2007-09-15 10:14 Message: Logged In: NO same problem on Samsung Q45 (keys work, auto-dim ac->battery works, no brightness support in kpowersave) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2007-09-10 11:15 Message: Logged In: NO set brightness not supported also for Toshiba Satellite 1410-303 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ powersave-devel mailing list powersave-devel@forge.novell.com http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/powersave-devel
