Workaround: Switch to a different virtual terminal for that. Affects backlight on a number of laptops, e.g. from the IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad series. (Seems to be fixed in git since some time in 2008-03, needs to be verified)" My hp Conpaq 8510p has Radeon Mobility HD 2600 and no brightness contol, even when I disable the environmental sensor in the BIOS. BTW, after running OpenSUSE 11.0 b3 once, brightness control also failed in Windows XP on the same machine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
