>The first file for the Intel IGD stays at 250 no matter the brightness

You could try changing this to 255 to see if that makes any difference. This
might fry your hw, no idea.
No arrows here either. I would have no use for them because I use the
scrollwheel on my mouse or the side of the touchpad.

Look at the first 2 for intel.
The first 2 seem interesting. Check their values as you change brightness.
They probably change between 0 and 255.
You can try editing those files as super user. (Weird thing might happen if
you should input a value outside of the range.)

Can you change the brightness with the Fn keys? Have you checked out what the
corresponding brightness values are in sysfs. Maybe it doesn't go all the way
for whatever reason but can be manually adjusted.
You can probably find the correct file with
find /sys -name brightness

I believe what you're looking for is the openjdk-7-jdk package.
Those are meta packages depending on the real deals. And dependencies are not
removed when you remove a package. So you need to pop open synaptic and
search for linux-image (state:installed) and remove the ones you wish.
Not really as 3.5 is relatively old. The easiest way to test the newest

The probably cause is it requires a proprietary firmware to run that is

I think this is a really good question. In the future the amount of stuff to

On the other hand there are the 40,000 deb packages in the repos and the

You'll have to find out about the reso if you manage to login. The free stack

does not work well with all nvidia cards. Nvidia provides no free drivers nor
