See if this works with you (it's ok with my FZ340E/B): - install nvclock and insert the /local/usr/bin (or the path where nvclock was installed) in the $PATH variable at /etc/profile - chmod 777 nvclock so it can be executed as normal user - Map the fn+f5 and fn+f6 keys (brightness up and down) with xev. This way you can actually know the keycode for them. In my case they are 101 and 212. - install xbindkeys package. - create a file in your home directory name .xbindkeyrc - add the following lines to .xbindkeysrc:
#adjust the brightness up -> keep the double quotes as they are part of the script "nvclock -S +10%" c:101 #adjust the brightness down -> keep the double quotes as they are part of the script "nvclock -S -10%" c:212 - make sure following command runs every time you start X (via startx, or kdm, whatever): xbindkeys -f ~/.xbindkeysrc - give it a try :) hope this works, it's perfect here, but the only problem is that there is no visual feedback indicating the current level. Altough, it's a minor problem in my opinion. -- No Screen Backlight Control; Sony Vaio with nvidia 8 series graphics https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/95444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
