[Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys

[wub]

I just installed the first lucid beta and this just became an issue for
me.  From 7.04 to 9.10, I have been able to use my full range of
brightness settings with fn + f6/f7 on my Fujitsu Lifebook.  Now, I see
a horizontal bar indicator that only cycles through the top end of the
brightness setting.

/proc/acpi/video/OVGA/LCD/brightness  says I have 8 levels of
brightness, but the lowest I can set is 6.  Also, I found a thread
indicating this 'file' could be edited to set levels, but I am unable to
save changes to it.

In the same directory, the file EDID contains only "<not supported>". 
 the file info contains:
device_id: 0x0400
type:         UNKNOWN
known by bios:  no

and the file state contains:
state:  0x1f
query: 0x00

If any of that might be useful.
