[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1225811] Re: 1002:6601 [Dell Inspiron 15R 5521] Can't toggle backlight brightness

2014-04-16 Thread Nicolas Devillers
As (probably) a large number of user on linux right now, I'm using the
following workaround to handle this issue:

'echo 4590   /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness' as root

another option might be to use the following xrandr command:

xrandr --output [yourscreendevice]

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1225811] Re: 1002:6601 [Dell Inspiron 15R 5521] Can't toggle backlight brightness

2014-04-16 Thread Nicolas Devillers
xrandr --output [yourscreendevice] --set Backlight 80

However, in my case (maybe because I have 2 video adapter [cpu/amd] )
the latter xrandr command is equivalent to write in
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness which doesn't work.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1225811] Re: 1002:6601 [Dell Inspiron 15R 5521] Can't toggle backlight brightness

2013-12-17 Thread Nicolas Devillers
Christopher,

This bug is indeed still an issue on the latest 13.10 kernel : Linux
3.11.0-14-generic. I'll try to check with upstream soon but didn't find
time for that lately. However, unfortunately I don't think upstream
kernel provide change relevant to fix this issue.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1225811] Re: 1002:6601 [Dell Inspiron 15R 5521] Can't toggle backlight brightness

2013-12-17 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
Nicolas Devillers, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please just make a comment to this.

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily 
folder, but the one at the top) following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional 
upstream developers to examine 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:
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-v3.13-rc4

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. Thank you for your
understanding.
