... and it's fixed and working like a dream :) thanks guys! Mucho
appreciatoed. Proposed now points at the right files, and my brightness
is adjustable
Problem persisted with kernel version right up to 2.6.27-12, not
occurred on the one restart so far since 2.6.27-13 (installed to
successfully fix bug 261721) but that means next-to-nothing given the
seemingly random occurrence of the bug, no other proposed updates
installed, up-to-date in
Bryan: the linux that appeared in proposed for me was 2.6.27-12. What's
going on?
The bug still persists for me, by the way...

X never sees brightness key release events on Dell laptops
The problem has only been partially fixed by released updates, as I said
in my previous post the bug has been fixed for the vendor string Dell
Inc. but not for Dell Computer Corporation. This is exactly the same
bug, it's just older Dells with the same bug have a different vendor ID

If it isn't a Dell laptop, it isn't the same bug, file a new bug report.
If it's exactly the same cause, i.e. brightness function keys reporting
a down but not an up, then the solution will be similar but laptop
vendor, possibly even laptop model, specific. This bug is treating Dell
laptops with

Also, be aware (from release notes):
Hangs with desktop effects on Intel 830MG and 845G video cards
There is a bug in the Intel video driver for the older intel 830 and 845
integrated video cards that are used on laptops like the IBM R30.
Desktop effects with compiz will not work on those chips
I possibly didn't come across the problems in the release notes when
installing because I upgraded from Hardy rather than installing from a
live CD...

So what's the status of this bug? I understand that a previous kernel
release fixed the bug for the vendor id = Dell Inc. case, but the
vendor id = Dell Computer Cooperation case has not (yet?) made it into

I do NOT think this is a duplicate, the problem with the Dells is a

I don't think this is a duplicate, as the bug that this is a duplicate

work. Someone please look at this.

Gnome desktop chrashes after
Same bios version and settings here, but I've kept compiz and splash and
haven't fiddled with xorg.conf... everything works fine when the laptop
display is actually being used after startup, except it seems to have no

Oop sorry Chris :) (and Marc) to be fair, I think I'm allowed both to

I suppose technically it's not a duplicate of bug 285323 because the
