The regular system uses the radeon driver instead. This explains the different behaviour. Did this ever work before? Please attach Xserver config and logfile as usual. -- 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.

Thinkpad means 965GM not Radeon X300. Possibly this issue has already been fixed in git. I'll attach the patch. -- 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.

So this can't be the reason. Does at least using the 'xbacklight' program work for you? -- 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.

I can't install beta1 because the live installer is broken here. xbacklight -set 90 works fine and also I can change the brightness with kpowersave -- 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.

In case you're familiar with git and know how to compile and install the driver, please give the current interl driver git a try. Otherwise, we need to wait for the next release, which will include this fix. -- 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.

Unfortunately there is no backlight fix included, so my assumptions were wrong. :-( I'm afraid only Intel can fix this, so I set this to LATER for now. I'm following the upstream Bugzilla movement and intel driver git check-ins, so eventually I'll see a possible fix for your problem, we can give a try. For now, please use the workaround. BTW, I'm also using xbacklight, since I didn't find brightness buttons on my laptop yet (Dell Inspiron 6400). Maybe I should check my manual ... -- 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.

I installed new opensuse 11 beta2 x64 version. Brightness keys affect screen light level but on a quite random way and it is almost unusable. As soon as I touch something in kpowersave, the screen is set back to the maximum brightness. Brightness setting inside kpowersave configuration works well. I can perform testings if that helps (but I'm not able to re-compile my kernel...)
