    I've had an 9300 for a couple weeks now, and recently noticed that when I increase the volume, or the screen brightness, the gauge or indicator doesn't come up on the screen. The functions still work, but the gauge won't come up. It really isn't that big of a deal, but it would be kind of nice to have it back, does anyone know the solution? Thanks.

    the fn does still work w/o quickset. I didn't like quickset always running, so I finally just uninstalled it. I don't have any problems without, but it does have some really good features on it.
