[Bug 873191] Re: Ubuntu starts with lowest brightness on HP G62[regression]
I came across a suggestion to a brightness issue on a different machine that was fixed by setting GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX= to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=acpi_os_name=Microsoft Windows XP. Apparently fooling the bios into thinking its running Windows frees up more facilities including control of brightness. To make the adjustment to Grub, go to a terminal, sudo gedit etc/default/grub will put the grub file into gedit, find the line and edit it and save. Then in the terminal sudo update-grub. Not yet tried it because I need more time in case I lose my screen again! But someone else might want to. Some more details of my set up below. (Note I currently have acpi off as part of a different more complex fix and hope to be able to get it back on to stop my laptop overheating and running the battery down in 10 minutes!) ian@ian-HP-G62-Notebook-PC:~$ cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-32-generic root=UUID=9ed9a092-9789-4941-adb9-7bfc021fc975 ro quiet splash text acpi_osi=linux acpi=off vt.handoff=7 ian@ian-HP-G62-Notebook-PC:~$ ls /sys/class/backlight/*/ actual_brightness brightness max_brightness subsystem uevent bl_power device power type ian@ian-HP-G62-Notebook-PC:~$ sudo lspci -vnn | grep -A10 VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0046] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:1439] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 19 Memory at b000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M] Memory at a000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] I/O ports at 3050 [size=8] Expansion ROM at unassigned [disabled] Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit- Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [a4] PCI Advanced Features Kernel driver in use: i915 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/873191 Title: Ubuntu starts with lowest brightness on HP G62[regression] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/873191/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Bug is still present in 12.10 Beta 1. I have managed an ACPI work around but it is not satisfactory because it leads to overheating and a battery that lasts about 15 minutes!

Still got the message which seems related to the grub line I added with an earlier Ubuntu i915.modeset=1 This was because on my HP G62 laptop the screen blanked at start up and this fixed it. I'm reluctant to remove it just now in case it does the same as I have some pressing work to do.

[Bug 305546] Re: Nautilus crashing/freezing when opening folder with svg file
I'm on Karmic because my hardware isn't supported by higher versions - ATi 4250 which kills booting on later versions. .svg preview kills nautilus and it really needs fixing. Non-techs here can't understand why their desktop background suddenly disappears! I have set my Nautilus preview option to not display files 500k in preview because it seems to be the bigger Inkscape files that cause problems. Its a work around but not a satisfactory fix. I'd fix it myself if I knew how! Disable preview for .svg should not be that hard and it is better to display a generic icon for one filetype than crash the whole system. Another workaround if you can use samba is to put the files on a smb share because then icons are not displayed. -- Nautilus crashing/freezing when opening folder with svg file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305546 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
