I don't know if this is related or not but this might not be a GNOME bug, this might actually be a Kernel bug with HP's as on my system the Kernel reports that it is unable to obtain the brightness with the message [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: No _BQC method, cannot determine initial brightness -- You

This bug affects all my G series and Envy series HP laptops, as well as my Dell. They all either have an AMD APU (all my HP laptops) or an i5 (the Dell). We had the same problem back in 11.10. There is one thing in common between all my laptops and that's that they all have 7 series graphics,

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.5kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages. Once you've tested the

apport-collect 1016724 generates the output below and then hangs so I'm not sure I can change the marking to complete. @jsalisbury I've never tried to manually change kernel before so I'll wait until I have more free time (probably tomorrow) so I can research how to do it properly and safely
