[Bug 596742] [NEW] Backlight changes at random, brightness applet doesn't work

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I've got a brand new asus EEEPC 1001 px

The first problem was that the back light didn't work at all. After a
small fix the back light was working but if you use the hot keys the
value changes at random.

The applet doesn't work at all. You cant change the value.

What you could do (I know this sounds silly but it works) is push the
brightness applet, you will see the little thing, which you can not push
because then it will close, but then you should use your hot keys. They
function properly then.
