    All,

    I realized that my brightness function keys will not work if I closed my laptop screen. When I reopen the lid and tried to adjust the brightness with the function keys, nothing. I end up always going to window mobility center to adjsut the screen brightness.

    No matter what I set the comouter to do when the lid is closed doesn't seem to affect the outcome of the brightness function keys being useless. I will have to restart the computer inorder to use them again.

    I want to know if any other sz6 owners out there experience this malfunction or similar function key bugs when regarding the closing and opening of the lid.

    This is driving me nuts...
