[Bug 1500094] Re: Asus UX303LB: Brightness keys Fn+F5 and Fn+F6 don't generate evdev event

 

echo 8 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
-> Brightness changes
video.use_bios_initial_backlight=0 -> only applet works, fn+f5/fn+f6 not working
acpi_osi= -> neither works, fn+f5/fn+f6 or applet
video.use_native_backlight=1 -> only applet works, fn+f5/fn+f6 not working
this didn't work: /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/80-backlight.conf

It seems a problem similar to the one in
