[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1173961] Re: [Gateway NV55C] Two backlight interfaces that wont adjust backlight.
Max Oropeza, as per the previously noted URL, it advises you to fill out all
the below information and send to appropriate mailing list (which would be
linux-acpi in this case):
[1.] One line summary of the problem:
Paste the downstream bug title.
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
Paste the Bug Description and a link to your Launchpad bug report.
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel): Please note,
Kernel.org uses a different keyword system then the Ubuntu Tags system.
[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, please execute the
following in a terminal and paste the results:
cat /proc/version
[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)
This is only relevant if you had a oops crash (ex. flashing Caps Lock light).
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, if you have a
kernel oops, one may consult
http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/oops-tracing.txt . If this is too
daunting please ask for help in your bug report, and of the Ubuntu community.
[6.] A small shell script or example program which triggers the problem (if
possible)
This is for advanced community members. If you feel comfortable enough to do
this, please do it. It is not crtical if this is beyond your skill level.
[7.] Environment
Please execute the following in a terminal, and paste the results:
lsb_release -rd
[7.1.] Software (add the output of the ver_linux script here)
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, this is found in
the directory:
/usr/src/linux-headers-/scripts
where is the version of the kernel you are using, found in the
directory /usr/src. You may run the script by changing to the directory via a
terminal, and paste the results:
sh ver_linux
[7.2.] Processor information (from /proc/cpuinfo):
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, execute the
following in a terminal, and paste the results:
cat /proc/cpuinfo
[7.3.] Module information (from /proc/modules):
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, execute the
following in a terminal, and paste the results:
cat /proc/modules
[7.4.] Loaded driver and hardware information (/proc/ioports, /proc/iomem)
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, execute the
following in a terminal, and paste the results:
cat /proc/ioports
cat /proc/iomem
[7.5.] PCI information ('lspci -vvv' as root)
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, execute the
following via a terminal, and paste the results:
sudo lspci -vvv
[7.6.] SCSI information (from /proc/scsi/scsi)
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, execute the
following via a terminal, and paste the results:
cat /proc/scsi/scsi
[7.7.] Other information that might be relevant to the problem (please look in
/proc and include all information that you think to be relevant):
While booted into the newest upstream mainline kernel only, execute the
following via a terminal, and paste the results:
ls /proc
[X.] Other notes, patches, fixes, workarounds:
If this is a regression, please note the specific commit. As well, it is
imperative that you include any further debugging information from
http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ using the newest upstream mainline
kernel available. Failure to provide the information from the documentation
mentioned for the driver or subsystem your reporting a bug in, may likely
result in negative unintended consequences. In addition, please be 100% certain
you have included all relevant comment information not included in the Bug
Description and a kernel developer should review. They are some of the busiest
people in the Linux space. They do not need to dive through downstream bug
reports to find something that should have been provided when the bug was first
filed. If you are unsure about anything asked for, or intend on not following
this format, please do not file a report. Instead, continue to ask questions in
Launchpad, and of the Ubuntu community, until all issues are cleared up.

When I'd do a fresh install starting with 12.04 (that's when I got the laptop I'm using now) the backlight wouldn't work but it was just a simple solution by changing the GRUB line to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor". So when the time came to update to 12.10 it happened again and that was the solution again, but not with 13.04. -- 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/1173961 Title: [Gateway NV55C] Two backlight interfaces that wont adjust backlight.

So, I was able to install the kernel version 3.11.0-999-generic. Once I rebooted, there was no difference. I changed the GRUB to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor" AND GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi='!Windows 2012" AND GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor" acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor AND quiet splash acpi_osi='!Windows 2012made it possible to lower the brightness to about halfway but it doesn't show the dialog that says the screen brightness is lowering. But quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor shows the dialog but doesn't lower the screen brightness. I left the GRUB with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor" for the meantime. -- 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/1173961 Title: [Gateway NV55C] Two backlight interfaces that wont adjust backlight.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1173961] Re: [Gateway NV55C] Two backlight interfaces that wont adjust backlight.
Max Oropeza, thank you for updating your BIOS. Could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the kernel in the mainline kernels archive directory daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. 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-v3.11-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 If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.
