Hello all,
I'm a linux newbie who just loaded YDog 2.3 on my G3 Wallstreet =
PowerBook.
I have most proprietary systems up and running, except for my LCD =
brightness/contrast controls.
The brightness/contrast buttons (located just below the screen, near =
power switch) work fine when I boot into MacOS, but NOT in linux.  Is =
there a way to activate these buttons?  The default screen settings look =
pretty nasty on my display.
Thanx,
Bill
