Maybe solution 1 : Could somebody try to move /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-sony-laptop-brightness.fdi into /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty or if it is not working /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/ ? (obviously after moving it restart HAL or the computer) 2009/8/3 yohan

Yes, you're right .diff files are better. It's just that I forgot to backup the previous files, so I cannot generate them asap. You'll here find there the 3 files that I modified. their paths are /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux and /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor Just diff them for me. 2009/5/5
