Bug Description

Brightness control is broken for Samsung netbooks which is bad, since after resume the screen backlight defaults to off.

https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa/+packages

contains all the dkms modules needed to make the brightness keys work and to fix the awful "screen stays black after resume" bug along with all the scripts that are needed. Please package them for the "real" distribution.
