I realize my acpid-solution only works when restarting acpid from within the xsession. This is because of the dbus signal system. acpid must have the users dbus-session-bus-address to send the notification. Sorry about that.
Anyway the right way of solving the brightness is still fixing the 'hal' bug, and let g-p-m do the work. g-p-m was designed to to this, and it works. I did compile hal with the fix and enabling the hotkeys in thinkpad-acpi. The workaround is great. But its always better to fix the cause. Please some dev look into bug #372874 for a review, patch for hal is included! -- No notification when sliding audio volume, muting volume, sliding LCD brightness on ThinkPad X31, X32, X60, T22, T42, T60, R50e, R51, R52 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/357673 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
