Adam Niedling, if you disable the nvidia card in BIOS, and uninstall bumblebee, does it allow you to adjust the brightness? ** Tags added: latest-bios-v1.21 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/925690 Title: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/925690/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I just tested it with Ubuntu 13.10 (Kernel 3.11.0-12-generic x64) and the issue is still present. I don't see the point of testing it with 3.12 rc7 since there hasn't been any activity upstream since the last 6 months. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Tags removed: bios-outdated-v1.21 ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/925690 Title: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/925690/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 925690] Re: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop
Adam Niedling, could you please confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If the issue remains, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, 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 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-rc5 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 Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

[Bug 925690] Re: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop
I've been affected by this bug in Ubuntu 10.04 and now Xubuntu 12.04. So this bug has existed at least since kernel 2.6. I have an Acer Aspire 7736Z laptop. The Fn-left/right arrow keys do bring up the sun icon and the brightness slider moves onscreen when I make like adjusting it, but the physical brightness never changes. There is a workaround in Ubuntu Forums that involves adding this kernel parameter: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor Perhaps this could also be passed upstream to help them fix it in future releases... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/925690 Title: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/925690/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 925690] Re: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop
It's already passed upstream if you take a look at it. Are you sure it's: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor and not: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor ?? For me the latter one works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/925690 Title: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/925690/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 925690] Re: Screen brightness adjust hotkeys don't work with an Acer 5755G laptop
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.3 kernel[1] (Not a kernel in the daily directory). Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag(Only that one tag, please leave the other tags). This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. If this bug is fixed by the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream-KERNEL-VERSION'. For example, if kernel version 3.3-rc2 fixed the issue, the tag would be: 'kernel-fixed- upstream-v3.3-rc2'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as Confirmed.
