[Bug 1651629] Re: [Asus X200MA] Brightness keys don't work.
With just "video.use_bios_initial_backlight=0", the brightness keys do nothing, and the gnome brightness slider works. With just "acpi_osi=", the brightness keys are recognized, and the brightness meter changes, but the actual screen brightness doesn't change at all. The gnome brightness slider also doesn't change the brightness when using this parameter. With just "atkbd.softraw=0", "showkey -s" produces no output when pressing the backlight keys. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1651629 Title: [Asus X200MA] Brightness keys don't work.

[Bug 1651629] Re: [Asus X200MA] Brightness keys don't work.
Using "acpi_backlight=vendor" and also creating the "80-backlight.conf" file with the contents shown on that page, results in the brightness keys still doing nothing, and the gnome brightness slider not working. The /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness file still works fine though. I think that's everything in the workaround section there.

[Bug 1651629] Re: [Asus X200MA] Brightness keys don't work.
Booting with "acpi_backlight=vendor", the brightness keys do nothing, and the gnome brightness slider breaks. The /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness file still works. I don't know if it's important, but the "max_brightness" is 7812, which might be an unusual range. Setting brightness to 8, as recommended by the workaround steps, makes the screen way too dark to see anything. I usually have it at about 4000 or so. Anyway, I'm attaching the "vendorbacklight" and "lslabacklight" files that where generated, and I'm going to test the atkbd.softraw-0 parameter next. I'll report back with it's results. ** Attachment added: "vendorbacklight" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1651629/+attachment/4794923/+files/vendorbacklight -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1651629 Title: [Asus X200MA] Brightness keys don't work.

[Bug 1651629] Re: [Asus X200M] Brightness keys don't work.
That does not make the brightness keys work, unfortunately. Using those causes the keys to be recognized by the system, and the popup showing the brightness level will come up and indicate that the brightness is being changed, but the actual screen brightness doesn't get changed. Using those parameters also makes the Gnome brightness slider stop changing the brightness. Piping a number to the /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness file still actually changes the brightness when using those parameters, the same as it does without them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1651629 Title: [Asus X200M] Brightness keys don't work.

Since I forgot to add this before posting, I should specify that I made sure to test those parameters with the mainline 4.9 kernel, and not just the standard Ubuntu one.

Sorry about that, I thought I was already on 506 for some reason. I updated to 506, and tested with the 4.9 kernel, and the issue still persists.

[Bug 1651629] [NEW] [Asus X200M] Brightness keys don't work.
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1329510 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1329510 Public bug reported: Same bug as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1329510 Was asked to use the "ubuntu-bug linux" to post this along with the laptop info. Fn + F5 or F6 is supposed to lower or raise the brightness respectively. By default, nothing happens when pushing the buttons. Editing the grub config to add "acpi_osi=" to the kernel command line seems to make the buttons get recognized, and the brightness popup displays, but the actual brightness doesn't change. Changing the brightness by piping a number into "/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" works fine, and the brightness slider that shows up in the drop-down from the Gnome status bar thing works fine, but the actual hardware buttons don't do anything even when they get recognized.

The issue still exists in 16.10. Fresh install, made just a few hours ago. The workarounds don't even make the brightness keys work. The system shows the brightness popup, which responds to the brightness keys, but the actual brightness doesn't change. Changing brightness by piping a number into /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness still works though, but it'd be really nice to get the actual keys working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1329510 Title: [Asus X200M] Changing Backlight not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1329510/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
