  Unable to adjust brightness

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have an Intel NUC that's otherwise running Ubuntu 15.10 great! It's
  hooked up to a ViewSonic monitor via mini-DV / DVI.

  The brightness controls are disabled on the monitor.

  xbacklight does nothing. And I don't have the Brightness slider in
  Brightness & Lock.

  I've been poking around, and have seen where to create a file in
  xorg.conf.d. The problem is, I have an empty /sys/class/backlight dir.

  Per the following, I'm submitting a support ticket:

  set-backlight-and-sys-class-backlight-folder-is/578497#578497

  I'd like to be able to increase the brightness on my screen.

2015-12-15 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
Mark Reeves, it's not imperative you test this week, as this would be at
your convenience.

However, when you do have time, you would have options:
1) Install Ubuntu to a different partition and then test this there.
2) Backup, or clone the primary install.

2015-12-14 Thread Mark Reeves
Thanks for the quick reply! I'm not technically disinclined to take
these steps to further troubleshoot the issue, but am wary of
undertaking steps this week that may result in being unable to "boot
into the OS". Is this the only way to verify a fix? This is a primary
development machine and a busy week here.

Mark

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1522139] Re: Unable to adjust brightness

2015-12-13 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
Mark Reeves, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available
from the very top line at the top of the page from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D (the release
names are irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily
folder)? Install instructions are available at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds . This will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the latest kernel 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 issue 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-X.Y-rcZ

Where X, and Y are the first two numbers of the kernel version, and Z is
the release candidate number if it exists.

If the mainline kernel does not fix the issue, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-X.Y-rcZ

Please note, an error to install the kernel does not fit the criteria of
kernel-bug-exists-upstream.

Once testing of the latest upstream kernel is complete, please mark this
report's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

Thank you for your understanding.

2015-12-13 Thread Mark Reeves
Thanks, Christopher!

I successfully ran the BIOS update. I still do not see the Brightness
slider control, or any files in /sys/class/backlight.

As requested, here are the results of the provided command:

RYBDWi35.86A.0352.2015.1130.1011
11/30/2015

Side note: Intel's F7 BIOS Flash Update was very straightforward, and
not documented on the Ubuntu page provided:
http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-034499.htm

Mark Reeves, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better.

As per https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/83255 an update to your
computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (0352). If you update to
this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it
change anything?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement 
or not.
3) If the issue is still reproducible, please mark this report Status 
Confirmed. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Unable to adjust brightness

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have an Intel NUC that's otherwise running Ubuntu 15.10 great! It's
  hooked up to a ViewSonic monitor via mini-DV / DVI.

  The brightness controls are disabled on the monitor.

  xbacklight does nothing. And I don't have the Brightness slider in
  Brightness & Lock.

  I've been poking around, and have seen where to create a file in
  xorg.conf.d. The problem is, I have an empty /sys/class/backlight dir.

  Per the following, I'm submitting a support ticket:

  https://askubuntu.com/questions/577539/dell-chromebook-11-unable-to-
  set-backlight-and-sys-class-backlight-folder-is/578497#578497

  I'd like to be able to increase the brightness on my screen.
