Description Florin Andrei 2007-09-14 23:55:14 UTC

Description of problem:
Running the F8T2 i686 Live CD on a Lenovo/IBM T60. System is using battery power.
The LCD is too dark. Also, the brightness seems to fluctuate without apparent
reason.
On the same system, Ubuntu 7.04 works perfect.

I added the brightness applet to the panel, but it doesn't help, the max
brightness is still too dark.

I just realized this may not be related to xorg. But it's a bug nevertheless,
feel free to re-route.

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided
above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful
in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log
file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file

Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and
let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug
/var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please.

Thanks in advance.

Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to
investigate the issue further, and we have not received feedback to the
information we have requested above, we will assume the problem was not
reproducible, or has been fixed in one of the updates we have released for the
reporter's distribution.

Users who have experienced this problem are encouraged to upgrade to the latest
update of their distribution, and if this issue turns out to still be
reproducible in the latest update, please reopen this bug with additional
information.

Closing as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
