Eric: You say "no longer works." When did it work? With a previous release? When booted in BIOS-compatibility mode? You're sure it was using apple_bl when it did work?
Does nouveau work with EFI boot? If so, it's backlight control may work. If not, the mactel support PPA has a mbp-nvidia-bl-dkms package which essentially implements the backlight support from nouveau, which may be worth trying. I know that on some models backlight adjustment is available through the graphics card, but the binary-only nvidia driver does not implement backlight control afaik. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/952698 Title: Backlight no longer works on Macbook Pro5,5 with EFI boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/952698/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
