Title:
Backlight Bug
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Backlight control does not work, but there are entries in
/sys/class/backlight.
ls /sys/class/backlight > backlight
grep -r . /proc/acpi > acpi
sudo acpidump -o acpidump.txt
acpixtract acpidump.txt
iasl -d DSDT.dat
sudo fwts > fwts
sudo fwts method > fwts_method
dmesg | grep 'ACPI: Video' > video
sudo dmidecode > dmidecode.log
cat /proc/version > version
Testing for a work around
Reboot with only the kernel parameter acpi_backlight=vendor
does not work
ls /sys/class/backlight > vendorbacklight
No such folder /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/
Reboot with just kernel parameter video.use_bios_initial_backlight=0
does not work
reboot with just kernel parameter video.use_native_backlight=1
does not work
WORKAROUND: Install fglrx.
