[Bug 12637] Re: LCD Brightness on Laptop Always Set Very Low at Boot

[Bertilo]

I just tested Kubuntu 8.10 RC 1. The bug is still there. I didn't
install. I just tested a live CD session.

Actually the bug is worse now: My brightness controls only manage to
switch between "dark as hell" and "pretty dark" (back and forth).
"Pretty dark" is much too dark to do any work.

Maybe "echo blacklist video | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/local" will
still work as a temporary solution (it's good enough for me), but I
can't test that without actually installing (and I'm not sure I want to
do that since KDE4 is not really usable yet).
