[Bug 705949] Re: [Arrandale] Gateway NV79 Backlight and Monitor trouble
We're going to be moving natty to its new X stack within the next week
or so. Currently this stack is available in xorg-edgers, and our
testing is showing it to be quite stable. This includes the Q4 Intel
Graphics release, which I think includes some improvements for
Arrandale. It may well contain a fix for your issue.
I'd like to have you attempt to reproduce your issue with this new
stack. If it still occurs with that stack, we can then take the the bug
upstream, or approach the kernel team or other appropriate groups about
it.
The PPA is available at:
https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa
Here's a simple way to install:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Then reboot your system to get to the new bits.
If you want to go back to stock Ubuntu, there is a corresponding
ppa-purge tool:
sudo ppa-purge xorg-edgers
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
