Hm, poking Fn keys make kde slider widget appear on my Toshiba Satellite but do nada, never did, and I never looked into it, assumed there was no canned functionality for my lappy, so use a setpci script instead. Lappy has acpi_video0, which gui is twiddling, and does nothing, as does toshiba, while intel_backlight works. Suppose I should put latest/greatest kernel on the thing, maybe my Fn keys will magically start turning the _right_ knob. -Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
