ubuntu and brightness

[LabR@t]

runnung Ubuntu 8.1 on my lenovo s10 and the brightness keeps up and down gradually but it very annoying any ideas what to do to sort it.

is it the s10 or ubuntu?

it might be the power management option thats dimming your screen. go to preferences -> power management and there might be something like a check box thats enabling it.

also, have you got the laptop connected to the mains? that might be the reason....
