Hi
I have Ubuntu 8.04 installed on my dell vostro 1500 (2Gb, Nvidia 8400GS).
I have a couple of nagging problems with it.
1. The screen brigtness control is extremely sensitive. It changes by 2 or 3 levels when i try to reduce or increase it a single step. How can i configure it to be less sensitive to the key input?
2. I have Gkrellm installed with the dell i8k fan control plugin. I had ubuntu 7.1 installed before i upgraded to 8.04 and had installed the plugin initially. I am not sure if it is still required. Can i remove gkrellm and the i8k plugin without causing any overheating issues? if it is required is there any way to run gkrellm as a process in the system tray? right now it runs as a normal window with a tab in the taskbar.
Thanks.
