Dave Gilbert, I'm sorry what is this bug report about? I've read the Bug Description, which is written as an unhelpful catch all.

Christopher: Please carefully read the upstream bug that Gabriel has referenced, it includes a fix that he references in #10 I don't see how this bug with a specified upstream fix is an 'unhelpful catch all', given it's got an upstream fix I'd say it's pretty close to triaged if Gabriel confirms that the upstream which includes this patch now fixes the problem. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1241871 Title: 13.10 kernels (3.11.x) Fail to light up certain intel backlights To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1241871/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.12 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. 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. Thanks in advance.
