Using the intel driver (with SNA) works better than the current solution (the modesetting driver). [Impact] * Backlight control and resolution changes fail on some Optimus systems. [Test Case] * Select performance mode from the nvidia-settings panel and try to adjust the backlight or to cycle through the available resolutions - Expected: the backlight can be adjusted, and changing the resolution works. - Bad behavior: the backlight can't be adjusted and changing the resolution can some times result in a black screen. [Regression Potential] * Low, as the intel driver is more feature complete than modesetting. [Other Info] * N/A -- Running the proprietary nvidia drivers in an Optimus config works (Intel+NVIDIA) can discover two issues: 1. Cannot adjust brightness in the guest session (private bug #1290694) [Test Case] * Switch to guest session and adjust brightness from settings or hotkey or command line - Expected: Can adjust the brightness - Bad behavior: Cannot adjust brightness 2. Black screen while changing the resolution (private bug #1285062) but switching to the guest session results in a black screen. [Test Case] * Go to display setting, set rotation to counterclockwise/clockwise/180 degrees and click apply - Expected results: Can switch display rotation successfully - Actual results: Black screen when switching display rotation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nvidia/+bug/1326257/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
