[Bug 636672] Re: Brightness too low on Dell Vostro

[Tim Wentz]

Oh really? I would try fully installing (I tried the LiveUSB, but ran
into the brightness problem again) 10.10 final to see if the Nvidia
driver works now -- but the brightness is a pivotal usability issue.  I
guess I could theoretically try installing the driver from the Nvidia
website on 10.04 since you say the driver works -- but I don't really
have a need to as long as I have a driver that has CUDA capability.

Well, as I said, I found out the dimming problem is specific to gnome-
power-manager -- I tested Fedora 14 with Gnome, and it had the *exact*
same problem:  the second I change the brightness, the screen goes to
50%.  I googled a bit and found almost an identical description of the
bug -- but it was 2 years old, so I guess maybe they fixed it, but then
did it again...
