Therefore, i have tried several kernel from kernel.org where all Kernel provides the backlight control. To get comparable values, i have tried the kernel version ubuntu-kernel: Ubuntu 3.12.0-0.2-generic and 3.12.0-rc6 By using the the ubuntu kernel, i wasn't able to control the backlight brightness but by using the kernel profided by kernel.org works. Therefore, i began to search the patch lists of ubuntu and find this patch: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-trusty.git;a=blobdiff;f=drivers/acpi/blacklist.c;h=f49ffaedaefdaa28d533d339a3f5cda073687ed7;hp=9515f18898b2b578053c58309185daa7934cfdda;hb=02cb06962306d96f59bc97ec8289c14b73bafb4e;hpb=2eb9acd1a1deb3f4d6428d022fc43541c9e70069. I have reverted this patch and the brightness control of my notebook works fine. If anybody wants to execute the ubuntu-bug program, you should note, that i'm not using ubuntu, i'm only using the ubuntu kernel and the ubuntu-bug program is not in my repositories. Therefore, i supply the lspci-vnvn report. If any other logs or reports are missing please feel free to ask me.
