Re: bug 765438 - 8086:2a42 On startup, the backlight is off on laptop

 

Have a *look* at the "remaining actions" page <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts%20will%20make%20Ubuntu%20shine/Remaining%20actions>, and you will see this item:

     [o] I reduce the definition of papercut to not include reports
   where the affected package is "Linux".


This is because these reports are *difficult* to be improved, triaged or fixed for non experts; and doing any of this phases wrong will have *worse consequences* that what is normal* <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel>, making the bug fix process much longer.

I am willing to bring this bug into the project scope:

It is a critical flaw reported about two years ago. Upstreams says it is fixed, but I'm not sure why Ubuntu's team has still not patched it.

It is something that a Papercut Ninja cannot fix, since it can compromise the core.
Is it too far fetched for the scope of the project?
