DE? KDE/e17/LXDE/...Kernel? Did you try Fn+....

[fred0843]

Kde

Kernel 2.638.8

The boot screen is ok.when it gets to the Desktop screen it will dim down To save power.I would like to increase the brightness.Can not  find a control to do this.

In Power Management I only have performance setting.

power management of what desktop environment

the first info you posted doesn't help at all

in my toshiba netbook all i have to do is FN+F6 or FN+F7 to decrease or increase brightness but that is in kde4

also in power management setting i configured it to work with all brightness when charging and 70% when on battery

Try my profiles-->import-->click

[fred0843]

KDE4.6.5
Power profile only show performance

Do I have to install a additional program.

Same as on my desktop.

To save power I would like to increase the brightness.Can not  find a control to do this.

I'm missing something here. Increased brightness = increased power usage.

Desktop screen it will dim down To save power

I increase brightness when using AC Adapter.

Sound better ?
