The external screen works under some circumstances, but without backlight. If the computer is off, and I turn on with the lid closed, the external screen "works" If the computer is turned on, on linux, and I restart, the external screen keeps "working". If the computer is off and I turn on with the lid opened or the computer is on windows, using the external screen, and I restart to linux, I can't use the external screen: The image keeps "off". Although, the screen is recognized by xrandr, but no setting turns the screen on (not even xrandr --output DP1 --auto) In the situations that the external screen works, the backlight has no effect on it: When I adjust the backlight (either by the hotkeys, or by echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness, or echo 3000 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness), it just adjusts the internal screen When I use the hotkey to turn off the screen, it just turn off the internal screen Also, if I use xrandr to turn off the external screen, or suspend the computer, the external screen is turned off. When I try again to turn on, or resume it doesn't work. I tried to boot with acpi_backlight=vendor, and again just the internal screen worked properly. The hotkey to change the backlight didn't work, but echo 3000 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness worked I tried to boot with video.use_bios_initial_backlight=0 and the backlight worked just for the internal screen again I tried to boot with acpi_osi="!Windows 2012", the same thing By running dmesg | grep 'ACPI: Video', I get: [ 4.981826] ACPI: Video Device [GFX0] (multi-head: yes rom: no post: no) And lspci | grep VGA shows: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) I don't know if I should get 2 results in them, since I have two screens, but in DSDT, I just see one device with methods _DOS, _DOD, so I guess it is right. There is an if in the BCL, checking if it is Windows 8, but I believe acpi_osi="!Windows 2012", should "fix" it if that was the problem I believe that solving the backlight problem when I'm able to turn on the screen might solve the screen not turning on with the lid open. I tried to use the current Mainline kernel (3.11.0-999, or something like that), but after the boot the external screen was off and the internal was on, not showing anything but a black screen. I followed the Kernel/Debugging/Backlight page and I'll submit all the files that it generated. Thank you for your help!
