I tried $ lshal | grep system.hardware.vendor I got system.hardware.vendor = 'Sony Corporation'
$ lshal | grep system.hardware.product I got system.hardware.product = 'VGN-SR29VN_S'
Then in the file /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-laptop-panel-hardware.fdi I added the following
<match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.vendor" string="Sony Corporation"> <match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.product" string="VGN-SR29VN_S"> <merge key="laptop_panel.brightness_in_hardware" type="bool">false</merge> </match>
After reboot, I still can't change the brightness. Is it because my laptop does not support the brightness in hardware, and the problem comes from somewhere else ?
