FN + up and down key should UP and DOWN the LCD brightness, but it does not occur. When I press the keys, there is a notification baloon, but nothing happens with brightness. The notification baloon scale does not move. I mean, if I UP and DOWN the sound, for example, the notification baloon scales move left or right, depending on the action, but, with brightness, scale does not move (and, sure, as i said, LCD brigthness does not UP or DOWN).
Not successfull to get the key codes. So, using Keyboard Shortcuts, I got the values above:
XF86MonBrigthne
XF86MonBrigthnessUP - pressed FN + UP
If it was working correct, brightness should UP and DOWN accordingly.
I can confirm this bug on my LG R580 running Karmic. If I press FN + Down, the brightness is lowered one level; if pressed again, the birghtness is instead raised a level. Subsequent pressings of FN + Down will continue to raise, then lower, the brightness.
FN + Up appears to work correctly.
