Brightness issue with ubuntu 10.10
Hello world, as a good newbie I have updated my laptop from ubuntu 10.04 to
10.10 the very first day. It works almost fine, the only issue being that
the old workaround of passing i915.modeset=0 to the kernel plus installing
xbacklight and adding the xrandr command to Startup-apps is not working
anymore.
A kernel with the i915.modeset=0 loads the O.S. but only in console mode,
if logging in and trying to startx, the result is No Screen Found!
Avoiding that at the kernel, the GDM loads, but trying to log in with any
user in whose Startup-apps list I have included the xrandr command results
in a blink of a black screen with some commands (unreadable as too fast) and
back to the GDM screen.
The result is that currently I can only work at full brightness if switching
the PC plugged, or dimmed if switching it on unplugged.
Any ideas? Thank you,
