** Description changed:
- I'm using a Samsung r55 laptop installed with Dapper
-
Heres my exact laptop specs:
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/SamsungR55
- When turning on the laptop I can adjust the laptop brightness using
- (fn+up / fn+down) until I get to the Ubuntu boot screen at which point
- it will not work.
+ Brightness keys do not work in Ubuntu with the Nvidia Driver installed
+ on Dapper, Edgy and Feisty for the Samsung R55 and R65 Laptops.
- Below I have provided my xorg.conf and menu.lst files.
