[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1169376] Re: 8086:0166 [Dell XPS 13 L322X] backlight stopped working after update 3.8.0-18.28
Christopher, thanks for your support, but I believe that this is a very well documented issue with remedies like typing echo 0 /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness on the command line solves. The big issue is that after the computer resumes from suspend, the brightness go 100% and the keyboard commands for brightness can't change the brightness until the command I stated above is executed on terminal. As I said, it was fixed in the kernels 3.8.0 - 3.13.7 and the bug was reintroduced on the kernel 3.14.0 and I can also inform that it is on kernel 3.14.1 and 3.15.rc1. I will wait until Apr 17th to upgrade my Ubuntu 14.04 and see how it behaves. I will report the issues/success here. As for now, I am back to kernel 3.13. -- 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/1169376 Title: 8086:0166 [Dell XPS 13 L322X] backlight stopped working after update 3.8.0-18.28 Status in Dell Sputnik: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I'm on 13.04 beta 2 and I've been updating daily.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 954661] Re: backlight brightness not adjustable by default on Dell XPS 13
All 3.10.x kernels still have this problem. Using the script workaround on the /etc/pm/sleep.d only fixes shutdown/boot and suspend/wakeup (via software). When I close the lid of the Dell XPS 13 FHD and open it back, /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness value returns to 4882. Then I need to issue an echo 0 /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness to have brightness back to original level and have it working again. -- 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/954661 Title: backlight brightness not adjustable by default on Dell XPS 13 Status in Dell Sputnik: New Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Precise: In Progress Status in “linux” source package in Quantal: In Progress Status in “linux” source package in Raring: Fix Released Bug description: The backlight brightness is not changeable by default on a Dell XPS 13 running Precise beta 1 (or later).
