Just 10 minutes ago I had a similar or maybe an identical problem: When the laptop woke up from (S3) sleep, the screen was very dim and almost black, although everything else seemed normal -- e.g. I could use my Fn key bindings in twm, switch windows, type, switch to a console, etc.. The screen was so dim that I could barely see the outlines of the emacs and xpdf windows. Restarting xdm (and therefore the X server) didn't restore the brightness. But it probably is not a hardware problem, because rebooting the laptop restored the brightness to normal. -Sanjoy `Until lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunters.' --African Proverb -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-testers" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
