Hi all, I digged a bit through the net and everything I found is that the Fn-F5 and -F6 (increase and decrease brightness) do nothing. Furthermore, echoing anything between 0 and 7 to /sys/class/backlight/sony/brightness also does nothing. Same with xbacklight. I am using linux 2.6.27, config file at confg: http://www.logic.at/people/preining/sony/vgn-z11vn/config-2.6.27 I suspect that the reason is that this laptop has 2 graphics cards built in, one Intel and one nvidia. I am currently running the Intel (since it uses less energy). Any ideas, or better places where to ask?
