Hi, I have a really strange problem with the laptop-mode tools. First off, the details. I'm using an Asus UX32VD(fixed the backlight buttons with the script etc.
I changed my housing today from white to grey, all seemed fine (after struggling to get the speaker out of the old housing).
When I turned it back on, the backlight for the back button had stopped working and the phone wouldn't recognise my sim card.
Hi all, really psyched about the port of Paranoid Android. Everything seems to be running smoothly, except the absence of the backlight buttons not lighting up. Is there a setting for this? Is anyone else experiencing this. Thanks, A :laugh:
I have this laptop that doesn't handle the backlight very well.
In /etc/default/grub, I have added a acpi_backlight=vendor function to get it to work at all. Which is cool, and the backlight now actually works, but the minimum backlight setting is still pretty high.
Is there any way to decrease the backlight below minimum?
I've been having trouble with my MBP 7,1. The backlight doesn't want to stay on when I'm on battery, regardless of my power settings. I've tried swapping the Apple backlight (apple_bl) kernel module for the nVidia backlight module, but no luck.
Any suggestions?
Hi, i have an elitebook 8560w. Under gnome the backlight seemed to work fine. In kde the function keys made the popup to appear, but the backlight was not changed. After latest updates even the popup does not show up.I've tried echoing into /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness and it workedI tried also the solutions from this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=1511191.
When going to sleep mode to save battery, in the power management options, the option to dim the backlight won't work : the image on the screen turns black OK, but the backlight remains on :mad:
PS:
Unity can't work on this system (Intel 82855GME)
EDIT:
ls /sys/class/backlight/ returns nothing
I've been having this same problem with my Toshiba Satellite A660. I found that I can change the brightness by echoing a value to a different /sys/ file.First, look for other backlight interfaces:$ ls /sys/class/backlight/
acpi_video0 toshibaacpi_video0 is a common one I believe, and also intel_backlight. Try setting the brightness on any of these non-`toshiba` backlights.
In my opinion what is happening is that the backlight is just not turned on when the computer comes back up. If this compter has X on it I would recommend trying to startx as when it starts it will take over control of the backlight. Or,you could try running # echo 5 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness as root.
