Alex Barattini, thank you for updating your BIOS. Could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (v3.13-rc3, as rc4 doesn't have all the files yet) 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-v3.13-rc3 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. ** Tags removed: bios-outdated-a12 ** Tags added: latest-bios-a12 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1261853 Title: 8086:0166 [Dell Inspiron 15R 5521] Impossible to adjust the screen backlight Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: the change in the level of illumination of the screen, through the corresponding option in the control panel, has no effect ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: linux-image-3.11.0-14-generic 3.11.0-14.21 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-14.21-generic 3.11.7 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-14-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: alex 1443 F.... pulseaudio alex 11159 F.... pulseaudio Date: Tue Dec 17 18:50:13 2013 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=04335018-6e1d-453d-a8ba-25ae1c34f2eb InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-12-14 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) MachineType: Dell Inc.
