2012-11-20 Thread Amirhossein Malekpour
Same problem here with Xubuntu 12.10. Interestingly issuing the command
amixer set Master 3+ does not unmute the sound, while playing with
volume horizontal scroller does unmute.

[Bug 226894] Re: Backlight control does not work on MacBook Pro 3.1

2009-04-16 Thread Amirhossein Malekpour
MacBook Pro v.3  (Santa Rosa) running Ubuntu 8.10 , kernel 2.6.27-11-generic ,  
has problems with backlight.
The module  mbp_nvidia_bl   does not load by default.   Loading the module 
manually and writing the desired back-light value  (a number between 1 to 15)  
to  /sys/class/backlight/mbp_backlight/brightness solves the problem.   (You 
need to sudo -i )
Note that when you connect the laptop to power, the back-light goes back to the 
default value (i guess 15) , in which case you have to set it to 15 and then 
set it to your desired value the way I mentioned above.
