Bug#446777: xserver-xorg-core: Dell laptop screen brightness FN keys don't work

2007-10-16 Thread Marcus Better
Are you sure this is an ATI problem? I just got exactly the same problem with 
my Thinkpad R60 that uses an Intel graphics adapter. However I also update my 
kernel regularly (now using 2.6.23-rc9) and initially assumed it was related 
to the new thinkpad-acpi driver.

In my case the brightness keys also work in console mode.

Bug#446777: xserver-xorg-core: Dell laptop screen brightness FN keys don't work

2007-10-15 Thread Tim Richardson
Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.4-3
Severity: normal

Fn keys to control screen brightness have stopped working. 
Reverting to the testing version of xserver packages fixes the problem.
Reverting to testing versions of gnome-power-manager, acpid, hal does not solve 
the problem. In sid, both kde and gnome show the problem.

This is more likely a problem in the driver. You seem to be using
xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.6.193-3 from unstable. Could you try
6.7.195-2 from experimental?
