2green, thank you for apport-collect'ing. Regarding your comments https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1063804/comments/30 : >"With kernel 3.7 rc3 my brightness settings are remembered. But using the >Fn+F9 keys to decrease brightness and Fn+F10 to increase brightness still has >no result."
As we have two different problems, Fn+F9/F10 toggling brightness, and brightness settings remembrance, let this report focus on just Fn+F9/F10 toggling brightness. For more on this, please see the Ubuntu Bug Control and Ubuntu Bug Squad article: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/BestPractices#X.2BAC8-Reporting.Focus_on_One_Issue and Ubuntu Community article: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette You are welcome to file a new report about brightness settings remembrance via a terminal: ubuntu-bug linux and feel free to subscribe me to it. Hence, could you please test http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel- ppa/mainline/v3.7-rc4-raring/ ? ** Summary changed: - [HP Compaq 6710b] fn keys for brightness on not working [regression][12.10] + [HP Compaq 6710b] fn+F9/Fn+F10 keys for brightness not working [regression][12.10] ** Summary changed: - [HP Compaq 6710b] fn+F9/Fn+F10 keys for brightness not working [regression][12.10] + [HP Compaq 6710b] Fn+F9/Fn+F10 keys for brightness not working [regression][12.10] ** Description changed: The fn keys for brightness on my HP Compaq 6710b are not working.
