2008-04-21 17:09:16 mxyzptlk description Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager Similar to -- but not the same as -- other bug reports about brightness issues on laptops. Simply put, Fn+up does what Fn+down should do (makes the screen dimmer), and Fn+down does what Fn+up should do (make the screen brighter). It also seems to skip a brightness level (only five brightness levels). There is no slider for screen brightness under System - Power Manager. Release: Ubuntu 8.04 beta Package version: 2.22.1-1ubuntu4 Expect to happen: Fn+up makes screen brighter, Fn+down makes screen dimmer What actually happens: Fn+up makes screen dimmer, Fn+down makes screen brighter. Kernel: 2.6.24-16-generic Gfx card: Intel GM965/GL960 Not sure if I need to post more info.
