2012-04-03 Thread Carl Englund
Hi! Ok, here are my results:

ls /sys/class/backlight without extra boot parameters: acpi_video0
acpi_video1  intel_backlight

ls /sys/class/backlight with acpi_backlight=vendor boot parameter:
acer-wmi  intel_backlight AND backlight control WORKS!

I also tried kernel 
linux-image-3.4.0-030400rc1-generic_3.4.0-030400rc1.201203312035_amd64
with no extra bootparams but backlight control did not work there.

Oh, and adding acpi_osi=Linux also works!

Carl Englund, could you also please attach the following as separate 
attachments:
acpidump  acpidump.dat

** Description changed:

- Brightness control workaround adding acpi_backlight=vendor to kernel
- boot parameters works...BUT - when system shuts down screen after 10min
- idle, the screen remains black and doesn't switch on again (computer
- still running normally and can be rebooted by ctrl+alt+f2,
- ctrl+alt+del).
+ Brightness control does not work in Oneiric.

[Bug 882506] Re: Brightness control broken on Acer TimelineX 3820TG using Intel IGP

2012-04-02 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
Carl Englund, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. 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, please answer the following 
questions:
+ Could you please report the results following following 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight ?
+ When you remove kernel parameter acpi_backlight=vendor, what is the results 
of executing at the Terminal:
ls /sys/class/backlight

+ With acpi_backlight=vendor added, what is the result of executing at the 
Terminal:
ls /sys/class/backlight

+ If you boot with kernel parameter acpi_osi=Linux can you change your 
backlight?
+ Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are 
available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a
Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically
gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would
be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the
issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once
you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-
testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon
next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and
deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your
results.

Thanks in advance.

2011-10-27 Thread Joseph Salisbury
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel?  It
will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . If possible, please test
the latest kernel (Not a kernel in the daily directory).  Once you've
tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing'
tag(Only that one tag, please leave the others). This can be done by
clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom
of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed by the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream-KERNEL-VERSION'.  For example, if kernel
version 3.1-rc9 fixed and issue, the tag would be: 'kernel-fixed-
upstream-v3.1-rc9'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.


Thanks in advance.
