xubuntu864Hello14:42
bgardnerxubuntu864: Hello14:42
xubuntu864I have a question regarding the hotkeys on my Asus EEE 900AX netbook14:43
bgardnerxubuntu864: Ask your question, we'll help if we can.14:43
xubuntu864In xubuntu, the keys for brightness up and down do the same thing: the screen gets bright briefly, then back to dim. I tried "acpi_listen" and both issue the same code :0000002a14:47
xubuntu864Doing the  smae on linux mint with MATE desktop, the screen flickers from bright to dark continuously while holding either of the buttons, and then remains in one of the two states when I let go14:49
xubuntu864I then tried the xfce4-brightness-plugin in the toolbar, to just use a slider control for brightness14:50
xubuntu864That kind of works, but has weird behavior as well:14:50
xubuntu864first step is full brightness, then complete black, then full, then less, again less, again full. from then on down it decreases monotonously.14:51
xubuntu864the weird thing is: while the slider control is active, the hotkeys for the brightness simply work fine,  and issue proper acpi codes14:52
xubuntu864this workaround is good enough to be useful, but it seems like this could be fixed properly14:52
bgardnerxubuntu864: I have a similar issue for a full Asus laptop, but I don't have a solution.  Perhaps someone else here knows.14:54

larzconwellIs UEFI supported in Xubuntu, or do I have to change something before installing it?22:48
Pici!UEFI22:49
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI22:49
Pici(note, I've not done the install myself, I just know where the bot's help page for it is)22:49
Unit193I did once, followed that page and it was with Xubuntu.22:50
Piciyay22:50
larzconwellUnit193: Did you do it in EFI mode or whatever? Or did you disable a bunch of things?22:52
Unit193EFI.22:52
