Title: 10de:0dfa [HP EliteBook 8560w] Changing the screen brightness does not work anymore in 319.xx Status in Nvidia Feature Request and Bug Reporting: New Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-319” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Changing the screen brightness always used to work on my HP Elitebook 8560w -- both with the function keys and in the dialog "Brightness & Lock" in the system settings. The environment light sensor also used to work IIRC. Since the update to 13.10, this stopped working. Methods I have tried that didn't work for adapting the brightness are: * Adding GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_backlight=vendor" to /etc/default/grub * Adding GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=”acpi_osi="!Windows 2012" to /etc/default/grub Currently I am changing the brightness manually using xrandr --output LVDS-0 --brightness 0.9. However, AFAIK this does not really change the brightness, but only changes the contrast. WORKAROUND: Use nvidia-graphics-drivers-304.
