[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1229591] Re: display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade
Chris Stratford, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please just make a comment to this? ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade + 8086:0116 [Dell Inspiron 14z (N411z)] Display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1229591 Title: 8086:0116 [Dell Inspiron 14z (N411z)] Display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On raring (and precise) the display brightness keys (fn+f4 and fn+f5) on my Dell Inspiron 14z turned the brightness up and down.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1229591] Re: display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade
Rather bizarrely, I can't get it to work with any of the mainline kernels. Even going back to 3.9.11-030911-generic which should work (since the real 3.10.0-6 works fine) I get no brightness control. I've also noticed the screen never seems to get turned off. After a while it will blank the screen, but the backlight is still on.

Trying bisecting didn't work for me, as (according to the wiki's translation of the output) it spans non-linear tags. My attempt to build from a 3.10 mainline kernel produced an image that suffered from the same issue, but that didn't provide a linux-image-extras package which seems to be necessary for the brightness controls to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1229591 Title: display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On raring (and precise) the display brightness keys (fn+f4 and fn+f5) on my Dell Inspiron 14z turned the brightness up and down.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1229591] Re: display brightness keys don't generate evdev events after saucy upgrade
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: On raring (and precise) the display brightness keys (fn+f4 and fn+f5) on my Dell Inspiron 14z turned the brightness up and down.
