[Bug 1154488] Re: [Dell Precision M6700] Can't adjust brightness with function keys(Fn+up/down)

 

Hello,
after discussed with Ara, since this issue works with proprietary drivers 
and according to Sasha's comment #7 says that it works also with BIOS A10.

I'll change the bug status into Invalid, please feel free to re-open it
if you have doubts.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
