There was a bug in HAL with the brightness addons for Macbooks. The addons returned INT32, but UINT32 was expected and because of the conversion from int to uint the values get negative. To get HAL running with KPowersave you should install/update from FACTORY: * hal * ConsoleKit * PolicyKit * kdebase3 The best would be to restart the complete system after the update, ab please check if ConsoleKit is running. -- 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.
