Hey guys.

I'm not having this issue any more. Due to two main reasons. I switched to Fedora some time ago. To F10. And it did have the same issue in my laptop. In one of its kernel updates the issue was solved. Currently I'm running Fedora's kernel 2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.i686.

Probably this was an driver/ACPI update. The kernel solution was so good that even LCD dim when lauching SDL applications was solved. Now SDL applications don't dim LCD brightness anymore.

What I can do is, before upgrading to F11, give a try to newest Ubuntu release and post my findings here. I'll do that.

Cheers.
