Fixed where?
I read this recently in the ibm-acpi devel list. There is a patch, but it is only for recompiling the kernel, I thought it would came merged in openSUSE 11.1 (I don't want to recompile the kernel).
Do you have a pointer to this patch? If no one tells the suse kernel developers about such things, how can you expect it to automatically show up in our kernel? :)
Also, a friend gave me, a couple of day ago, a copy of kubungo 8.10 live cd, I run it in my laptop and the brightness keys works (If I remember well it runs kernel 2.6.27-7); also it has a visual notification for changing the volume with the volume up/down/mute keys. If I were not a openSUSE fan, I probably would install it in my laptop.
That's probably using a userspace tool for this, or the think-pad kernel module, which we do offer. Have you tried them out? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
