FYI There is a hidden menu in the "Phoenix BIOS" for Samsung P560 which allows ACPI-Settings for ALS (Ambient Light Sensor) from "Disabled" to "Legacy" to "ACPI" and some other interesting settings for CPU, PEG, PCI, memory and temperature...
Try following: Enter BIOS. When in BIOS, press "Fn+F10" (release keys) and then "Fn+12" (release keys). Move menu cursor...a hidden "Intel" menu appears (the BIOS version string appends). Please try other Samsung notebooks like NC10 or R560 too. I changed ALS to ACPI and Legacy, but my kernel (2.6.30) does not detect it anyway...perhaps a newer kernel does. I hope, this information and the possible settings help to get the notebook completely running with the function keys. ;) -- Samsung P560 brightness keys block keyboard and produce all-or-nothing effect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/338182 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
