[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1281176] Re: 8086:2a02 [Dell Vostro 1310] no brightness control on (x)ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04
Christopher, I reinstalled my Windows Vista from my restoration DVD just to check if brightness works and I had many difficult installing it. I was able to install an old XP and I discovered multiple errors about ACPI and the brightness control has issues on this OS too: I can see the brightness slider moving but the luminosity don't change. I need a reflow or a moterboard replacement. Seems Linux is enumerating periferals in a different way and is less sensible to hardware failures. Please, mark this bug as invalid and close it. I'll contact you again if, after the hardware fix, the issue is still present. -- 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/1281176 Title: 8086:2a02 [Dell Vostro 1310] no brightness control on (x)ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: When I press the appropriate keys on keyboard (Fn+up/Fn+down) the slider appears on the upper right corner of the screen but the brightness doesn't change.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1281176] Re: 8086:2a02 [Dell Vostro 1310] no brightness control on (x)ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04
Done. http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpi&m=139290477319769&w=2 ** Summary changed: - 8086:2a02 [Dell Vostro 1310] no brightness control on (x)ubuntu 13.10 + 8086:2a02 [Dell Vostro 1310] no brightness control on (x)ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04 -- 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/1281176 Title: 8086:2a02 [Dell Vostro 1310] no brightness control on (x)ubuntu 13.10 / 14.04 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: When I press the appropriate keys on keyboard (Fn+up/Fn+down) the slider appears on the upper right corner of the screen but the brightness doesn't change. Problem is I have not intel_backlight on /sys/class/backlight folder but just acpi_video0 or dell_backlight (if I set acpi_backlight=vendor on grub). Since I don't have intel_backlight folder I can't apply many of the workaround found here and there. WORKAROUND: /sys/class/backlight$ for i in /sys/class/backlight/*; do echo -e "\n $i"; cat $i/{brightness,max_brightness,actual_brightness}; done /sys/class/backlight/dell_backlight 1 7 1 If I increase the backlight the files are correctly updated: /sys/class/backlight/dell_backlight 7 7 7 acpi_listen works just on new mainline kernel 3.13.2 (tried bot generic and lowlatency) on stock kernel there isn't output at all: video/brightnessup BRTUP 0086 K video/brightnessdown BRTDN 0087 K Now I'm using xrandr to change the brightness: xrandr --output LVDS1 --brightness 0.5 but since xrandr is a software overlay my battery life is horrible, I'm stuck on 100% brightness. Beside this, sometimes the brightness slider appears spontaneously without pressing any keys but again with no effect.
