Thanks to everybody who contributed! ** Description changed: + + ******** the bug is fixed with kernel 3.7.0. + + On Ubuntu 11.10, and 12.04, and even on 12.04 with mainline kernel 3.4, and 3.6 , the brightness hotkeys (decrease=Fn+F8 , and increase=Fn+F9) have no effect on my Clevo laptop. - however, brightness control via "System Settings" -> "Brightness and lock" menu (in 12.04) work out-of-the-box. - when adding the "acpi_osi=" option, hotkeys work , but the "Brightness and lock" menu has no effect any more. - more information on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2046843 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-26-generic 3.2.0-26.41 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-26.41-generic 3.2.19 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-26-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
