all acpi functions

doesn't work

manual operation from /proc doesn't work too.
In dapper proc forced acpi control worked. hotkeys control was partial but at least working

tried also to execute manually the script
panabright.sh up
or
panabright.sh down

in /etc/acpi/

cat: /proc/acpi/pcc/ac_brightness_max: No such file or directory
cat: /proc/acpi/pcc/ac_brightness_min: No such file or directory

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 alpha?

[Mante (mante)]

Tried alpha6, acpi doesn't works. Need to install a special kernel
module to have it to work.
Same in hardy...
