[Bug 549861] New: Lenovo T61p: display brightness changes
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549861 Summary: Lenovo T61p: display brightness changes Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: koenig@linux.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- in battery mode the T61p reduces the display brightness after a short time (less then a minute) of inactivity to *very* dimm. this is nasty when reading some text. when I touch a key or use the touchpad/stick the brightness is raised again, but only to 50% level and not the the original brightness (e.g. 100%). then I have to use Fn-Home again to increase brightness (this model has 16 levels of display brightness, older T60/T61 only have 8 levels!). and if i don't keep the keyboard or touchpad busy, very soon the display will be dimmed again:-( 11.2 factory: not really usable for my Lenovo T61p in battery mode! -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Or are you using KDE4? There should be a similar option for that. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

BUT: now with xfce4-power-manager running, Xserver sometimes hogs cpu: see Bug 550440 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Any changes? Anyway, brightness is controlled by a desktop application, so if it's not working, it's a bug of this application. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
