Quote:avj: As another side note it occurs to me that this might be a side effect of a misconfigured keyboard layout. IE: "Asus Laptop" layout instead of system default
In the present case, the backlight problem was not due to a misconfigured keyboard as the 'Asus laptop' option had already been chosen from the keyboard settings, immediately following LL installation.
Quote:Wirezfree: Just a comment on a similar situation with a "HP TS-15 Laptop"
My Brightness did not work with the FN+F2 & FN+F3 keys.
I found a fix with modifying the grub line to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor"
Could it be, Wirezfree, that maybe there is more than one way to do this for a given laptop?
Might be interesting to investigate though I don't really have the time or inclination to do this.
Could be useful for others to list their experiences here for different makes of laptop...
