Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
BUG creeped into Maverick 10.10; wasn't in Lucid 10.04. Still exists in Natty 11.04 (can be verified with Natty distribution CD). During boot sequence, display backlight is turned off. Also occurs when waking up from suspend. Graphics are being output but cannot be seen because backlight is off. Plugging in an external monitor and setting to mirror displays turns on the backlight. (which will go off again upon suspend). Seems related to i915 chip settings. same bug referenced in detail in: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/685727 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/705949 .. both bugs which have languished for ages with no response and have been inexplicably closed. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/797537 Title: Natty 11.04 Gateway NV79 BACKLIGHT TURNED OFF DURING BOOT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/797537/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
