@alain57 -- you refer two patches associated with that upstream bug. The second one does look sensible in its own right. The first of those is simply a debug patch and not applicable to the general case, and therefore not applicable to our kernel. There does appear to be an updated patch in the bug, but that is predicated by a bunch of other patches:
According to upstream we would need these patches: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=21801 http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/40097/ http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/40098/ http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/40099/ http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/40100/ http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/40348/ Then this one: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=22675 I will put together a test kernel with this combination so we can help push this to mainline. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Andy Whitcroft (apw) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- brightness dark and not working on acer 5715 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401591 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
