fine to be here. I just wanted to say about this issue and ask the kernel developers to not set the brightness to FF without being sure that this would be the right setting in order to gain a maximum brightness of the backlight of the screen. Well, then. You might get a scrpt that is working after installation and get a hint how to perform the installation itself. Shortly, you'll be able to control the brightness of the backlight of your screen. But you will not be able to play fullscreen games like tuxracer. And, it will be hard to install the system without seeing anything on your screen.
The solution given at http://www.markuswalther.com/tech/backlight.html ia only partial, installation and games like tuxracer will stay in the dark. However, if you used an external monitor for installation, and used sbrinst from the archive on this page, you'll be able to control the backlight setting of your screen. But, that is not what I wanted. I'd rather liked the kernel programmers to know that brightness settings with Intel GMA 4500M chipsets may differ completely and tell this the distibutioon managers. Did I fail and have to go something else?
