[Bug 889586] [NEW] Emachines e525 cant see if turned comp, cant change brightness

 

Public bug reported:

This is since 11.04 and now im reporting it from 11.10
This bug doesnt exist in 10.04 but about 10.10 i dont know.
1. if i turn comp on- all is black so i cant see anything- it reacts if i make volume up/down so i know its turned on
also cant change brightness
2. i was able to manage when changing brightness once up and once down right before grub starts loading then all is seenable but still cant change brightess so its max all the time.
If i press brightness shortcut fn+brightnessDown/Up indicator shows up in screen but brightess doesnt changes.
One interesting thing if i fn+brightnessUp then i get symbol ± so 10 times making brightness up would give me in text editor ±±±±±±±±±± even thought its already to max and indicator also shows its max.
