  2. [ubuntu] Re: Avoid pommed for keyboard backlight control

    Yes, yes I did. But I asked for was if anybody knew if it could be done through the DE - as it was in Jaunty, I might add - so that I may take advantage of dimming, power-saving, HUD notifications,...
  3. [ubuntu] Re: Avoid pommed for keyboard backlight control

    The problem is that I want something to control the keyboard backlight just not pommed because it interferes with my other function keys.
  4. [ubuntu] Avoid pommed for keyboard backlight control

    Is there any documented way to get the keyboard backlight (and keys F5 and F6) working without the use of pommed, preferably using something like gnome-power-manager. A search hasn't pulled much...

    [ubuntu] Re: Macbook 5,5 Fan Control in Karmic?

    Is there any script or app or daemon that can handle this on it's own? I'm looking to maximize my battery under Ubuntu.
  6. Re: new xf86-input for macbooks and other multitouch-touchpads.

    Okay, I think I got it compiled. Really excited. As a matter of fact, xserver-xorg-dev was the first thing I installed - but I never did remove the 11-x11-synaptics.fdi file, though I had removed...
  7. Re: new xf86-input for macbooks and other multitouch-touchpads.

    Kudos on the release... but, still, any hints on dependencies? I actually got errors in compiling this time, which is suprisingly good news. Do I need to install the Xorg SDK? Is there a package...
  8. Re: MacBookPro5,5 random loss of brightness control

    Yes, I'd be glad to. I highly recommend removing mbp-nvidia-bl-dkms, as it's only ever caused problems for me. In fact, remove both, reboot, and then install only the latest nvidia-bl-dkms. That's...
  9. Re: MacBookPro5,5 random loss of brightness control

    Sorry to peel the thread out from under you, WindPower, but I'm gonna mark it as resolved. The update actually fixed things for me after I removed and reinstalled the package. I also realized that...
  10. MacBook Pro 5.x no brightness control

    My MacBookPro5,5 (also known as the June 2009 Unibody MBP) is having brightness problems. Usually, with OOTB Ubuntu, I can control the brightness flawlessly with the keyboard keys labeled F1 and F2...
  11. Re: new xf86-input for macbooks and other multitouch-touchpads.

    Do you mind me asking if there are any package dependencies that could aid in getting it working? I got it compiled and installed from GIT, but my trackpad (MacBookPro5,5; a.k.a. June 2009 Unibody...
  12. [ubuntu] No window manager starting when Compiz enabled

    I'm having a slight problem with a fresh install of Karmic on my 2009 MacBook Pro (with Nvidia 9400GM card). Compiz enables beautifully, although the strangeness occurs when I reboot: no window...

    [ubuntu] Re: Karmic on Macbook Pro 5,5: Minor Problems

    Have you installed nvidia-bl-dkms and NOT nvidia-bl-mbp-dkms? Make sure the latter is not installed, it doesn't work well on MacBookPro5,5 w/ Karmic.

    [ubuntu] Re: Karmic on Macbook Pro 5,5: Minor Problems

    The 99-savings script is causing your standby screwups. Believe me, I reinstalled to find out. Remove it and you'll be fine.

    For the FN keys, look in the Wiki guide (just Google MacBookPro5,5...

    [other] Re: grub2 EFI boot loader internal/external booting

    I can't (sorry), so chainloading gives me a clean entry on rEFIt.

    By the way, is anybody having trouble with suspend and hibernate? I'm using BURG with fakebios (see below), and the screen simply...

    Do you use autologin? Unfortunately, this is a larger issue with Gnome as a whole... it's keyring (what it stores your passwords in) unlocks automatically if you log in via the login screen, but not...

    Unfortunately, the waiting for ~20s and up on resume from suspend is from your wireless card. Some cards like to dump all connection information between suspend/resume. Not much can be done, but...

    Re: Allow WiFi to start before you log in

    I believe KDE (or at least Kubuntu) uses both PolicyKit and NetworkManager.

    Steps 3 and 4 are not needed for Kubuntu systems, as this is just a hack to make sure Gnome authenticates your user...

    It's this huge panorama of a port in Singapore hosted on Wikimedia that, among other triggers, has proved to be a trigger of the bug on most systems. I use it constantly for checking.
