[Bug 872652] [NEW] screensaver backlight stuck off, system looks hung

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have been using Kamal Mostafa's kernels for my Dell Studio 15 for a
few releases. Now, in oneiric, the brightness can not be changed unless
I add acpi_backlight=vendor to the kernel command line. The brightness
adjustment works fine when I make this change.

However, when I add this command line option, it introduces another
issue where when the display goes to sleep, it does not resume.

Somtimes I get the screen back by switching to a console tty and then
back to the X tty. But, the only reliable way I can get a screen to come
back on is to close the laptop lid (so the system suspends) and then
open it. The display will turn on for resume.
