[Bug 145337] Re: Brightness key stopped working after update [Gutsy]

[ThomasN]

1. Exact HW
cat /var/lib/acpi-support/system-product-name
Answer:
HP Compaq 2510p Notebook PC

2. Do these two commands (if run from Konsole) change brightness
properly on your laptop?

dcop `dcop | grep power-manager` power-manager brightnessUp
dcop `dcop | grep power-manager` power-manager brightnessDown
Answer:  No. Here's the output:
object 'brightnessUp' in application 'power-manager' not accessible
object 'brightnessDown' in application 'power-manager' not accessible

3. Does your laptop return same keycodes from brightness up (212) and down (101) as documented on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KubuntuLaptopKeycodes page?

Answer:  Here's the output of  lshal -m
Start monitoring devicelist:
-------------------------------------------------
16:54:21.186: platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input condition ButtonPressed = brightness-down
16:54:24.172: platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input condition ButtonPressed = brightness-up

Note: Brightness buttons and Resume after Suspend work fine in Ubuntu7.10 + Gnome.
They do not work with Ubuntu7.10 + KDE nor Kubuntu 7.10.
