Linux On My Samsung

After sudo apt-add-repository ppa:voria/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get purge samsung-backlight-* sudo apt-get install samsung-backlight sudo reboot Using kernel 2.6.31-20-generic, the FN-UP and FN-DOWN keys adjust the brightness as expected. Thanks very much! Unfortunately...

How do I get an update to a later version?

Hi, Thanks for your suggestions but they did not work for me. I have however fixed the Wireless resume problem. Wireless on Resume Yes it appears to lose Wifi on every suspend-resume cycle. I yum removed samsung-scripts but get the same behaviour. I do not even get "Wireless Network\n disconnec...

Hi, I have recently purchased 2 NB30's and installed Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix on them. I read the posts on this website and installed the repository ppa:voria/ppa and updated the install. It works very well apart from two problems: the screen brightness control and resumption after sleep Screen Bri...
