Re: UL30JT + restricted drivers = black screen
Hi Willem,
So, where did you turn down the backlight / brightness?
Did the restricted driver solve the suspend problem as well?
And did you have any luck with the webcam? The steps mentioned here
https://launchpad.net/~asus-ul30 didn't work for me.
Thanks,
Jarra
