> Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel > Version: 2:2.2.0-1 > Severity: normal > > This is kind of a followup to #439744. I decided to open a new bug > report since the problem, while related, is different. And less bad. > > With this new version of the X server, my backlight, which had been > working with version 2:2.1.1-4, went back on the fritz, same symptoms > as described in #439744. > > But when I took a look at commit 43fbc547786cf26514f95bce79fab58a66c291bf, > I saw that they'd generalised things and made the backlight control > method used be configurable with xrandr. After I ran this, my backlight > worked as expected: > > xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL legacy > > So I hope that the X server can be taught to use legacy mode by default > for this model of laptop, instead of the current default, which I think > is probably native mode. > > (Is there some way I can configure this in xorg.conf?) > Forwarded upstream at the URL above.
