This behavior is not seen with suspend/resume or at boot (such as with LP #954661). However, like with those issues, "/bin/echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" allows the backlight to become adjustable again. I have verified this behavior on two systems. The backlight behaved correctly on both with Precise running Kamal's special kernel build. --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/by-path', '/dev/snd/controlC0', '/dev/snd/hwC0D0', '/dev/snd/hwC0D3', '/dev/snd/pcmC0D0c', '/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p', '/dev/snd/pcmC0D3p', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is a distribution channel descriptor # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-somerville-precise-amd64-20120703-2 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=2827209a-01af-48d1-82e8-472354ab65a7 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-03-26 (3 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 "Precise" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20120703-15:08 MachineType: Dell Inc.
