Sadly, I'm not a GPU driver developer but a backlight one. All I can say about your backlight is: its functionality should be provided by the i915 GPU driver. Please pay attention to the bug's category. After I get an understanding of the problem, I probably should move the bug to another category but I'm not sure where: i915 is not using kernel bugzilla and I'm not sure if this is their problem; I doubt if there is anyone looking at the nouveau driver issue if I move it to DRM/non-intel. > Please don't send me in all different directions.

I think Jozef's suggestion is good and you should try that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
