I do not have the exact same laptop, but I do have an Asus F6A with the same problem, and I can provide the details you asked for. I have the exact same problem. When using the hotkeys, the OSD brightness metre flashes and changes, but there is a long delay before it responds, and the screen brightness does not change. Attempts to change the brightness manually fail for me too.
I am running the latest release (Lucid), but have not as yet tried the latest upstream kernel. I will let you know when I have tested it. -David -- Asus F6A-X2 Brightness stay high, controls (Fn+F5/F6) does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311115 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
