Public bug reported: For several Asus EeePC netbooks with GMA500 (Poulsbo) video hardware, gsd-backlight-helper tries to write the brightness to /sys/class/backlight/eeepc/brightness, which does nothing. It should write to /sys/class/backlight/psb-bl/brightness.
This bug is based on workarounds here: http://dirs- dissman.livejournal.com/13758.html and here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11968333&postcount=14, but I couldn't find any bug about it on launchpad so I created this. This problem is known on at least the Asus EeePC 1101HA and 1201HA. ** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: For several Asus EeePC netbooks with GMA500 (Poulsbo) video hardware, gsd-backlight-helper tries to write the brightness to /sys/class/backlight/eeepc/brightness, which does nothing.
