I'm sure I saw this subject posted awhile back, but a search of the FAQ  
archives yielded nothing...

The brightness level on my mono slab has been dimming steadily for weeks.
Currently, it's to the point now that I have to run at max brightness to see  
anything, and it's not getting better :(  BTW, I'm always careful to dim the  
screen when I logoff, and the auto-dim setting under preferences is set to dim  
after 5 minutes.

Could someone who's had this problem lend some advice?

	There's one Mono Monitor in our campus lab which has the same  
problem. And it is now to be there to discourage people from using it due  
to the limited liscience agreement for some software which can be used on  
one individaul machine only.  The same discouragement was made to the only  
Slab in the lab which has a floppy drive but only 8-Megs of RAM on it.  

	I guess you would like to bug your local representative to get it  
fixed soon.
