Public bug reported: Press Fn + up/down arrow.
Expected to happen: brightness goes up or down; notification in top right of brightness going up or down. Actually happened: brightness stays unaffected; notification does appear and respond correctly, but lies. Cannot adjust brightness using function key combo. Shows the notification as if I am adjusting it, but screen stays on max brightness. Brightness & Lock app doesn't adjust brightness either. When I switch to proprietary drivers, brightness adjustment does work. When I turn off the nvidia card and use the intel card, brightness adjustment works. But with the intel card only I don't have hdmi port support, so no triple monitor support. And with the proprietary drivers, I get horrible, horrible bugs, including one that made it impossible to get into my system until I modified bios settings related to the video card. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: brightness fn function -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1472897 Title: cannot adjust brightness E6530 15.04 fresh install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1472897/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
