** Description changed:
CID: 201308-14057 Dell Inspiron 3135
+
+ Brightness cannot be adjusted if the proprietary fglrx video driver is not
installed.
+ Module "radeon" cannot be found in lsmod, it seems that this graphic chip is
not supported
Steps:
1. Install 12.04.3, and boot to desktop.
2. Try to adjust screen brightness with hotkey
3. Try to adjust screen brightness in "Brightness and Lock"
Expected results:
1. Brightness could be adjusted by the hokey
2. Brightness could be adjusted in "Brightness and Lock"
Actual Results:
1. Hotkey event was correctly captured, brightness indicator level will
change accordingly, but the brightness won't be altered.
2. Brightness cannot be adjusted in "Brightness and Lock" as well
Update to 3.8.0-33 still not helping with this.
However, acpi_backlight=vendor in grub can make it work.
- So as the proprietary fglrx driver.
