Comment 30 for bug 773471

Hi again, same thing with Natty. It's like the PPA doesn't get installed. I
am probably missing something:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kamalmostafa/linux-kamal-mjgbacklight

$ sudo apt-get update

Is that it? I guess not!

(Thanks for the setpci command, it makes Natty functional for me through a
simple-to-blind-type shell containing it.)
