Screen brightness on ThinkPad SL400

January 27, 2009

In an earlier post, I wrote that when I plugged in the ThinkPad, the screen screamed at me — i.e., it became considerably and uncomfortably brighter. I found out a few weeks ago that I could change this behavior. All I had to do in Windows (both Vista Starter and 7 beta) was right click on the battery icon on the system tray, then adjust the screen brightness when the TP’s plugged in. Works in OpenSolaris, too.

So that’s one minor annoyance out of the way.
