I don't know whether these patches are suppose to be automated, but I should report I just fixed my brightness key for my ASUS K401J running 12.04.
$ gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub Find GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= Add "acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor" such that it read GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor" Save file. $ sudo update-grub2 My brightness keys finally work correctly 2 years after I first purchased it. Couldn't be happier. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/76593 Title: asus brightness hotkeys To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/76593/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
