Hi, I can confirm that the bug is still present on Karmic stable - HAL 0.5.13 (fresh install on FE31M).
I fixed it changing the file "/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10 -sony-laptop-brightness.fdi" at line #160: from <remove key="info.addons" type="strlist"></remove> to <remove key="info.addons" type="strlist">hald-addon-generic-backlight</remove> This prevent HAL from using the generic addon to manage the backlight. Hope it helps. -- sony brighness on a geforce series older than 8 (nvclock works fine) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277589 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
