[12:42] <Apreche> Fujitsu, yes I can
[12:42] <Apreche> Fujitsu, i can also see some events happening in acpid and dmesg when I push the buttons
[12:43] <Fujitsu> Apreche: OK... That's odd.
[12:44] <Apreche> Fujitsu, hence, my confusion.
[12:44] <Fujitsu> Can you paste one of the acpid log entries here?
[12:44] <Apreche> sure
[12:44] <Apreche> actually
[12:44] <Apreche> the acpid only logs something if I do Fn+F7 (brightness up)
[12:44] <Apreche> if I do brightness down it doesn't show in acpid
[12:44] <Apreche> only in dmesg
[12:46] <Apreche> [Sat Mar 17 19:45:00 2007]  received event "video LCD 00000086 00000000"
[12:46] <Apreche> [Sat Mar 17 19:45:00 2007]  notifying client 4049[0:0] 
[12:46] <Apreche> [Sat Mar 17 19:45:00 2007]  notifying client 4206[106:110] 
[12:46] <Apreche> [Sat Mar 17 19:45:00 2007]  completed event "video LCD 00000086 00000000"
[12:46] <Apreche> 4049 is Xorg and 4206 is hald-addon-acpi
[12:54] <Apreche> Fujitsu, want any other information? I've tried just about everything.
[12:54] <Fujitsu> You might want to file a bug on the kernel, I think.
[12:54] <Apreche> where do I go to do that?
[12:55] <Fujitsu> Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[12:55] <Apreche> I was using Edgy, but just now I am booting a Feisty CD just to make sure
[12:56] <Fujitsu> Check if it's still broken in Feisty, and if it is please file a bug at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+filebug
[12:56] <Apreche> omg, it works in Feisty! hooray.
[12:56] <Fujitsu> Oh good!
[12:56] <Apreche> I'm still wondering what the problem was, though.
[12:58] <Apreche> if I install feisty, will it upgrade itself to the stable version when the stable version is released?
[12:58] <Fujitsu> The normal upgrade process will do that, yes.
[12:59] <Apreche> awesome
[12:59] <Apreche> thanks
[12:59] <Fujitsu> The beta will be released in a few days, if you wish to wait until then.
[12:59] <Apreche> oh, good. I know the final is about a month away, and I can't go a month without brightness controls.
[01:00] <Fujitsu> The beta is meant for general testing, so should be pretty much OK to use.
[01:00] <Apreche> wow, this is pretty cool. A laptop that 100% just works without any ndiswrappers or anything.
[01:00] <Apreche> alright, I'll definitely do that, thanks again
[01:00] <Fujitsu> Mine does too, it's great!
[01:01] <Apreche> awesome
[01:01] <Fujitsu> You might want to write up a LaptopTestingTeam page for it.
[01:01] <Apreche> yeah, I saw that. I will definitely do that.
[01:01] <Apreche> because I still think that the g-force sensor and the fingerprint reader do not work
[01:02] <Apreche> ok, bye
