[Bug 1241982] Re: LED-Panel Brightness not adjustable after suspend & resume on MacBookAir6

 

spezimass, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc2

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  LED-Panel Brightness not adjustable after suspend & resume on
  MacBookAir6

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Before suspend & resume the behaviour of the led-backlight pressing F1 or F2 key is adjustable. 
  Checking the register `/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness` the range from 0 to 2770 can be operated in 21 steps.
  After resume still the full range is triggered with the F1 to F2 keys, but here the backlight is turned off completely for all values less than 2280 and fully turned on for all values greater 2290.

  Setting the brightness with `echo 2289 >
  /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness` the led backlight
  starts to flicker in a period of approx 1sec.
