Bug description:
This is a system installed with latest stable 12.04.5 image.
The Brightness key will invoke the osd-notify indicator but the
display brightness won't change.
Verifying the value changing in backlight interface, system are using
acpi_video0 instead:
Steps to monitor the backlight interfaces:
Press the brightness key until maxium indicator shows:
ubuntu@201210-11863:/sys/class/backlight$ cat intel_backlight/brightness ; cat acpi_video0/brightness
3407
99
ubuntu@201210-11863:/sys/class/backlight$
Press the brightness key until to minimum indicator shows:
ubuntu@201210-11863:/sys/class/backlight$ cat intel_backlight/brightness ; cat acpi_video0/brightness
3407
0
-
The workaround found here could solve this issue:
http://itsfoss.com/fix-brightness-ubuntu-1310/
-
Verified with other kernels:
linux-image-generic 3.2.0.67.79 = brightness control works
linux-image-generic-lts-quantal 3.5.0.54.59 = brightness control works
There is possible regression in following kernels:
linux-image-generic-lts-raring 3.8.0.44.44 = brightness control not work
linux-image-generic-lts-saucy 3.11.0.26.23 = brightness control not work
