[Bug 1667323] Re: Backlight control does not work and there are no entries in /sys/class/backlight

 

Can you test the following kernels to see when this bug was introduced
upstream:

4.4.41: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.40/
4.4.41: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.41/
4.4.42: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.42/
4.4.43: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.43/
4.4.44: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4.44/

You don't have to test every kernel, just up until the kernel that first
has this bug.

Thanks in advance!
