Updated to new version today and it seems that the function keys have
been disabled, so I have no brightness controls that are easily
available.  I can pull it up with the applet, and it still works
otherwise.  I am on a Gateway NV59 notebook.  I do wonder, also, why the
brightness levels never start at the correct level on this machine: when
I adjust after rebooting, the levels reset themselves to the previous
shutdown levels (i.e. reasonably dark), but when the machine is on the
Ubuntu splash page up until I've logged in and can control them, it's
always at maximum brightness.

I say this, at any rate: thank you very, very much for making this
notebook, and others, usable again!  I appreciate that you have done
this a whole lot.
