[Bug 1354710] Re: Backlight control does not work, but there are entries in /sys/class/backlight. Lenovo B570

 

I'll look at all the bisect results and see if this commit can be
reverted in mainline for testing.

Can you test the latest mainline kernel, just to confirm another commit does not fix this?  It can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-rc7-utopic/
