[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1363623]
(In reply to Alex Deucher from comment #39) (In reply to Christophe Migliorini from comment #38) Well, I did, '2014-09-17 15:38 UTC' and '2014-09-17 15:39 UTC' patches apply ok and it works. Sorry for the inconvenience. (perhaps one should consider pushing these two upstream instead of the fist one?)...

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1363623]
Apparently only set the default backlight level to something reasonable patch was applied to 3.13, so I don't have the radeon_encoder_add_backlight function, thus this won't work at all. Would you suggest I first apply the patch published here on 2014-09-17? -- 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/1363623 Title: [ASUS-A7K laptop] screen brightness dimmed after kernel update Status in xserver-xorg-driver-radeonhd: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, Following the update from kernel version 3.13.0-34 to 3.13.0-35-generic the screen brightness got a lot dimmer.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1363623]
Hi, it took me quite some time to get here, but hopefully you can still solve my problem. I'm running a 2006 Intel iMac (Core Duo) under Unbuntu 12.04LTS server, which sits on my desk and almost never log to the console, which would normally go blank a few minutes after boot. There is strong evidence that this patch found its way to my stock kernel back in september 2014, and since then my iMac exhibits the following behaviour after boot: - whenever the console blanking activates, backlight goes to MAX (with my LCD screen going all strange and overheating — even causing fans to blow) - only way out is to echo 0 /sys/class/backlight/radeon_bl0/brightness — which I 'crontabbed' but is not exactly satisfactory. - any other value causes the backlight to go all the way up and overheat. I did try to echo 1 /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness today, and that caused the iMac to reboot. I have not experimented anything else, but would be happy to help. uname is Linux xxx 3.13.0-49-generic #81~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Mar 25 16:32:40 UTC 2015 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux -- 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/1363623 Title: [ASUS-A7K laptop] screen brightness dimmed after kernel update Status in xserver-xorg-driver-radeonhd: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, Following the update from kernel version 3.13.0-34 to 3.13.0-35-generic the screen brightness got a lot dimmer.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1363623] Re: [ASUS-A7K laptop] screen brightness dimmed after kernel update
Catalin, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page (the release names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. If the test did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to 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 by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon, next to the word Tags, located at the bottom of the report description: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-3.XY-rcZ Where XY and Z are numbers corresponding to the kernel version. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-3.XY-rcZ 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. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) = linux (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- 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/1363623 Title: [ASUS-A7K laptop] screen brightness dimmed after kernel update Status in xserver-xorg-driver-radeonhd: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello, Following the update from kernel version 3.13.0-34 to 3.13.0-35-generic the screen brightness got a lot dimmer.
