@cryd_be Thanks for your reply, i've now seen the light ;)
I've added this (sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00) command to the rc.local file and the screen is now starting up. I can also report that supertuxkart does not cause the screen to go dim again, as reported in another bug regarding this problem, also the brightness controls still do not function as you said. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779166 Title: Upgrade to version 11.04, disable the laptop display back light To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/779166/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
