Very pity. > > Brightness, I can change by using sysctl. > Maybe, I can change also video output by some way. You should be able to use the key events trigger code to increment the sysctl. (Not that I have actually tried this.) Does xrandr work on the X61s? If so, this should also be doable by making the Fn+F7 trigger the appropriate xrandr command. Work fine on my T43. You could even write a gtk (or qt) based tool to bring up a GUI to let you customize this (similar to what the ThinkPads do under Windows XP). (No, I am not planning on writing one. My simple method is adequate to my needs.) -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
