[Bug 1105604] Re: Brightness control stopped working
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

The controls still don't work in my Dell Inspiron 15R with Raring.

[Bug 1105604] Re: Brightness control stopped working
An update on this bug... I have two raring installs. For one of them the brightness controls work, one doesn't. The one that doesn't work is a vanilla upgrade to Raring 13.04 from Quantal 12.10. The one that works is also an upgrade from 12.10, but there are two major differences: 1. I installed Gnome Shell 2. I am running the Mir PPA I have no idea which of the above might account for the brightness controls working, but installing Gnome shell should be harmless and it's not a bad desktop - so I'd recommend to try that. I don't recommend using the Mir PPA. There is a question on Askubuntu that I provided the brightness settings you can use (manually) to work around the issue: http://askubuntu.com/a/289177/14916 (specific to a Dell Inspiron N4010) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1105604 Title: Brightness control stopped working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1105604/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Latest update... the brightness control keys 'work'. The slider moves up and down, but there is no impact to the actual brightness. I'm controlling the brightness manually by setting it automatically after bootup and resume|thaw via scripts.

Now on Raring, the backlight is off after resuming from suspend. I have to run the following (blind type) after resuming each time: echo 978 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness Also, the function keys to control the brightness setting still don't work. They do on Quantal. ** Tags added: regression -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1105604 Title: Brightness control stopped working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1105604/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
