Updating to nvidia-driver-455 (or -460) results in loss of brightness control. On boot, the laptop display brightness is somewhat less than fully bright and cannot be changed. The brightness up/down keys do pop up the gnome gui brightness widget, and /sys/class/backlight/nvidia_0/* values do change, but the actual display's brightness does not. Problem occurs with either version of nvidia-driver-455 (the archive or the ~graphics-drivers/PPA) or any version of -460. Normal functionality returns if I downgrade to any version of nvidia- driver-450. Also observed: 455 and 460 temporarily display some pixel garbage while mode-switching during the graphic login sequence. Only a minor glitch, but note that 450 does not exhibit that issue either. Note also that manually applying this to /lib/systemd/system/nvidia-persistenced.service has no effect on the problem: https://github.com/hugh712/nvidia-graphics-drivers/commit/bccad5ee6444dd8c5c47ba19ea0232106a1086f5 Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Release: 18.04 Codename: bionic kernel: 5.4.0-54-generic #60~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Nov 6 17:25:16 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1905591/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
