[plug] LCD display

[Tony Clark]

Anyone experienced low birghtness wishy washy display running X...Both Kde 
and Gnone have the same problem...low contrast and brightness.  You would 
think it was a hardware problem but the same computer is fine running 
W2k...It's a laptop (tos 4080xcdt)...Problem started a couple of days 
ago...was running fine up till then....never seen the problem before.  I've 
resorted to a full re-install with no luck...Should have taken it to the 
install fest yesterday but it was a little far to go.

Anyone got any idea?

thanks
