I recently installed a custom kernel, and on that custom kernel, the brightness level showed up correctly. I had been trying build a kernel that took advantage of kernel mode setting for my Intel i915 card. I also compiled some other options into the kernel, and I think one of them might have done it. I suspect dell-laptop, but I'm not entirely sure. In my custom kernel it was used as a module, but I don't think it is included as such in the Ubuntu kernel.
I'm going to go look up how to compile the module outside of the kernel, but I can't help but feel that the module should at least be included with the kernel. I know it was previously, because my brightness used to work correctly. -- Brightness notification does not show correct brightness level https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/355981 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
