Kangarooo Jānis, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12-rc7 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 765438 8086:2a42 On startup, the backlight is off on laptop ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889586 Title: Emachines e525 cant see if turned comp, cant change brightness Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: 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.
