           Summary: How to disable brightness meter in kde?
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.5
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: fripp at mail.ru


Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

Since kde-4.5 has been released it shows a brightness meter on my sony vaio
vpccw2s1r. But the problem is when the brightness meter disappears from the
screen the brightness increases to the maximum level. The process seems like
that: I press Fn+F5, the meter appears, the brightness goes down, the meter 
disappears, the brightness jump to the max. I guess this is only vaio problem
because the brightness is governed by the third part module nvidia_bl-0.52.
Thus, is it possible just to disable this brightness indicator somewhere in
systemsettings or elsewhere?

Reproducible: Always




comp: sony vaio vpccw2s1r, gf 330m, the proprietary nvidia driver with
additional brightness modules nvidia_bl-0.52.
