Hi --

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a Lenovo X140e (AMD/ATI: Kabini Radeon
8240). The AMD/ATI open-source driver works out of the box (with the
exception of adding the acpi_backlight=vendor to the grub command line).
But, the proprietary driver (fglrx-updates) works much better with
external monitors, IMO. The trouble is, when using the proprietary
driver, the brightness seems to be disabled entirely. I saw the "please
contact" in the boot sequence and thought I'd give it a shot.
