I made the modification to apply to gnome-power-manager-2.32.0 tarball in Maverick.
Please, test it. For me it solve everything with brightness * Adding /apps/gnome-power-manager/backlight/brightness_in_hardware key. It is just workaround to prevent g-p-m from adjusting brightness, if Fn + Brightness Key was pressed. It must fixed: LP: #527157 - Skipping levels in case of Fn + Brightness Key LP: #415023 - Flushing or flickering on MSI WIND U100 with not-updated Bios (all clones too) LP: #261635 - Fn + Brightness keys could be added to /lib/udev/rules.d/95-keymap.rules to make them known. ** Patch added: "14-brightness-in-hardware.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/527157/+attachment/1716368/+files/14-brightness-in-hardware.patch -- Brightness controls skips Levels. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527157 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
