I am able to control the backlight from the command line. For intel processor:
Code: Select all

This is a long short but did you try the "auto install xorg video drivers"?

On version 12 the screen brightness Function keys worked (which was probably surprising), on version 15 they no longer work. This is only a report for functionality which was working in an earlier version, which no longer is functioning.

I hope someone will complete this build system.

I am an ordinary user, and I did not even know the difference between #!/bin/ash and #!/bin/bash. I did not know about the syntax of 'tail' command, either.No, though busybox tail +2 likely works, I was really meaning to avoid removing references to busybox in Slitaz scripts (so, for example, tail +2 alone doesn't work). However, better is 'busybox tail -n +2' (which also should work fine), I feel, since the other syntax (without the -n) appears to be deprecated generally. However, if no change to be made, 'busybox tail +2' should also be fine (just make sure to use busybox version as script so designed for).
The "auto install..." button and also the Detect PCI/USB are not accessible. I did the kernel swap prior to checking though, so not sure if it would have been possible with original kernel.s243a wrote: This is a long short but did you try the "auto install xorg video drivers"?

Just a data point. The brightness function keys on my i5 based Fujitsu S761 laptop (Fn+F6 and Fn+F7) continue to work correctly in alpha 15 as they have in previous alphas (With the stock kernel and with one of peebees 4.17.0. I haven't tried 4.17.2). It is a frugal Grub4dos install to an SSD with an ext2 savefile updated from alpha 14.

pankso did edit (close) my message instead to react / answer! why?
is the law
slitaz is completely free
not valid any more?
I am not one of the people making from SliTaz a "deguised" distro under Puppy but I ask now: how far is (LINUX-)free really free?
http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/pankso-we ... at-subject
here, I, personaly, am FOR SLITAZ and not for the guy's of Puppy searching only a new performance
but I find SliTaz can react and have to say to it's fans what the matter is!
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 705#996705
it would be interesting to be clear...
