Open a terminal and type :

For people who runs Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, this solution can still help.

Anyway, you have to know that Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Desktop version only), 10.10, 11.04 and 11.10 are not officially anymore supported by Canonical.

If you're still using one of these, please upgrade to 12.04 LTS which is supported ...

Thanks, this topic helped me to solve brightness control issue on my samsung n150

Hi David.

Well, i don't really know Puppy Linux.

So i think it would be better to get some advices from people who uses Puppy and see if theses fixes could match with your system.

In any case, please report here in this thread if you have succeeded or not, it could help others.

Thanks.

I'm glad that's helped you

Good news

Well, it could be a case where your HDD goes into sleep mode but doesn't want to wake up.

Let's try to find a way to solve this issue with hdparm

Get full informations about your HDD with :

sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda

And you can check the status of your HDD once on DC power and once on Battery ...

You're welcome ;)

but you have to know that i don't need to use an old kernel anymore.

Now, i'm running Ubuntu 11.04 with Voria packages and current kernel and it's pretty allright.

I'm still encountering some issues to wake up my netbook from sleep mode.

And i think that hibernate mode doesn't ...

Yep, it happens with some softwares like Evolution but i didn't find any solution.

For the moment, i resize the window with "alt" key

I didn't experience this issue with mine but thanks for the tip.

And did you try with a fresh install (11.04 or maybe try beta 11.10) without setting up voria packages/kernel ?

Some people have reported that it's allright with a fresh install of Natty and Voria tools.

Seems that issues are solved with Natty.

You should try and report
