Title:
  backlight control not working

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have followed the instructions at
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight

  The backlight control only works when I try the workaround by passing
  ONLY the kernel parameter "acpi_osi=" by editing the kernel boot at
  startup (by pressing the shift key). However, when I try adding this
  parameter permanently to the grub file, it doesn't work anymore. Any
  idea how to fix this?

  Thank you in advance.
