Oh really? I would try fully installing (I tried the LiveUSB, but ran into the brightness problem again) 10.10 final to see if the Nvidia driver works now -- but the brightness is a pivotal usability issue. I guess I could theoretically try installing the driver from the Nvidia website on 10.04 since you say the driver works -- but I don't really have a need to as long as I have a driver that has CUDA capability.
Well, as I said, I found out the dimming problem is specific to gnome- power-manager -- I tested Fedora 14 with Gnome, and it had the *exact* same problem: the second I change the brightness, the screen goes to 50%. I googled a bit and found almost an identical description of the bug -- but it was 2 years old, so I guess maybe they fixed it, but then did it again... -- Brightness too low on Dell Vostro https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/636672 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
