i have recently bought a Sony Vaio VPCEH2C1E/W laptop on which i installed Ubuntu 11.10 64bit OS type the graphic card is 512 MB NV GeForce 410M for which I chose (version current) [Recommended] if I check System Info, it says Unknown the colours are ok, but can't adjust brightness in the Screen settings (basically nothing happens) in the Display settings menu I also get "Unknown"
i would appreciate if someone could assist me in solving this issue
thank you
NVidia uses its own configuration software rather than integrate with Ubuntu ones; it was installed along with your drivers. You will be able to configure your monitors, among other things, with the
NVIDIA X Server Settings
application.
