[Trisquel-users] Screen Brightness Issue

[etk]

Hi,

I've been running Trisquel on my N-150 Samsung netbook for about a month now,  
and recently came into a bit of a problem regarding the brightness of my  
screen.  As of two days ago my screen has been very dimly lit.  None of the  
keyboard commands to adjust this are doing any good to fix the problem, and  
neither are the power savings features.  In fact they have never worked with  
my computer model, yet I never considered it an issue because I have always  
been happy with my screen brightness until about 2 days ago, when my desktop  
froze, I was forced to restart my computer and rebooted it to find this very  
dull screen.  I highly doubt there would be any quick remedies to this, and  
feel like it may be a problem with firmware.  Anyway, if anyone has any ideas  
or has experienced this themselves please let me know.

Regards,

Eric
