i further identified the cause, and it is the 'plugdev' group. if the |
10 |
user (include root) is not a member of this group, you will not be |
11 |
able to use the kde widget to change the brightness of the lcd. an |
12 |
even wired issue i found is that, after you joined in the group, you |
13 |
will have to restart the system. log off and log on takes no effect. |
