Public bug reported:
I've been experiencing brightness control issues and I ended up "upgrading" my
graphics driver through Intel Graphics Update Tool for Linux
https://01.org/linuxgraphics. Running their application setback my graphics
driver (previously Intel Ivybridge) to Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.8, 256
bits). I've tried several solutions I found on askubuntu and other forums, but
nothing seems to work. Fortunately I stumbled upon your xdiagnose tool and
tried running it. It seems my system is not using hardware acceleration.
I'll be happy to share any additional information you might need for solving
this. I'm including some of my commands from bash_history in a file.
I'm running Ubuntu LTS 16.04. Output to $ apt-cache policy xorg:
xorg:
