I have read the mailinglist for over a year and never heard about a similar problem till last month. But there was no answer given. If i use a 32 BIT linux the problem DO NOT occur, but for a few month I have changed again to a 64 bit linux system (I used 64 bit a year before and there was the same problem). Everytime after the message "Booting the Kernel" (all versions I prepared till 2.6.16) the displays brightness changes to the lowest value, so I have to press the hotkeys till the brightness has an acceptable value. (this also happens by an ordinary boot without resume. I notice that because in the attached email the person writes "My problem is that after resume".) >>From time to time the hotkeys "are confused" (or do not work), too. I press the key to increase the value and it go hell, dark, hell, hell, dark etc. (it does what it want *g*). Please help me ;-) and excuse my english.
