[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1389215] Re: Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg because of Nvidia proprietary driver.

2016-06-02 Thread Hans Deragon
Ok, so I upgraded my Lenovo w510 to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Xenial Xerus and
the problem persists.  The fix I provide works, though when changing the
brightness, it is jerky, i.e. it flashes between a low level and the
actual selected level.  But once the desired level reached, all is good.

So, can we finally introduce my fix into 14.04 and 16.04?  At least, it
provides a mean to change the brightness.

** Description changed:

+ Affects: Ubuntu 16.04 and 14.04.
+ Occurs only with Nvidia proprietary driver.  Nouveau works well.
+ 
  Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg.  When pressing the
  keys  and  on my Lenovo W510, I see the indicator on
  the screen showing the level of brightness changing, so key mapping is
  not the problem.  However, the brightness is not changing.
  
  On the kernel level, I have the single following device:
  
  # cd /sys/class/backlight
  # ls -l
  total 0
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov  3 17:16 acpi_video0 -> 
../../devices/pci:00/:00:03.0/:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0
  
  When playing with the  and , the value of
  /sys/class/backlight/brightness changes accordingly.  The screen
  brightness does not change.
  
  Performing:
  
  # echo 10 >brightness
  
  ...does not have any effect (regardless of the value provided, 10 being
  just an example).
  
  WORKAROUND
  
  There is an odd workaround.  Simply go to the console using
   and using the  and  keys, brightness
  then changes.  Return to Unity / Xorg with  and the
  selected brightness persists.
  
  NON WORKING WORKAROUND
  
  On the web, I read that adding:
  
  Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"'
  
  in xorg.conf might fix the problem.  I do not have an xorg and when I
  let the proprietary Nvidia driver generate one and add this option, X
  does not start anymore.

This LTS Enablement Stack scares me a lot; I do not want to screw my
system.  So if I understand you correctly, I should return to my
previous state with the following command, right?

sudo apt-get remove linux-generic-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid

If any of you work for Canonical, please suggest that a "Talk" page be
implemented on the Wiki like Wikipedia has.  I would like to communicate
with the people who wrote this page so I could ask them to officially
endorse this rollback procedure.

2015-10-08 Thread Hans Deragon
Following instructions found in bug #562005, I fixed the problem in
Ubuntu 14.04.03 LTS Trusty Thar.  Attached, the script which fixes the
problem.  It only creates the file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-nvidia-
proprietary-brigthness-keys-fix.conf if a card that suffers from the
problem is detected.  Thus for cards without issue, if this script is
executed, no change is brought to the system.  This makes it pretty
safe.

This script should be added to the package that performs the
installation of the package.  Can someone help me figure out how to do
this or want to take the lead from here?

2015-06-26 Thread Hans Deragon
Copying here my own observations about the problem, from my previous bug
report #1389215, now marked as a duplicate of this one.

---

Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg. When pressing the
keys fnhome and fnend on my Lenovo W510, I see the indicator on
the screen showing the level of brightness changing, so key mapping is
not the problem. However, the brightness is not changing.

On the kernel level, I have the single following device:

# cd /sys/class/backlight
# ls -l
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 3 17:16 acpi_video0 - 
../../devices/pci:00/:00:03.0/:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0

When playing with the fnhome and fnend, the value of
/sys/class/backlight/brightness changes accordingly. The screen
brightness does not change.

Performing:

# echo 10 brightness

...does not have any effect (regardless of the value provided, 10 being
just an example).

WORKAROUND

There is an odd workaround. Simply go to the console using
CTRLALTF1 and using the fnhome and fnend keys, brightness
then changes. Return to Unity / Xorg with CTRLALTF7 and the
selected brightness persists.

NON WORKING WORKAROUND

On the web, I read that adding:

Option RegistryDwords EnableBrightnessControl=1'

in xorg.conf might fix the problem. I do not have an xorg and when I let
the proprietary Nvidia driver generate one and add this option, X does
not start anymore.

Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS with latest updates as of this writing.



I tried under KDE Plasma 5.1 (Neon) and still I could not change the
brightness of the backlight.

However, the CLI commands that fail in a terminal running under an Xorg
session work flawlessly under a console (CTRLALTF1).

cd /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0

echo 5 brightness # Works under the console!
echo 10 brightness # Works under the console!

This all suggest that somehow, Xorg is inhibiting the brightness
control.



Found out that brightness control works fine with Nouveau driver, but
not with Nvidia proprietary driver.



Discovered another behaviour. If you play with the brightness controls
under Xorg, nothing changes. However, suspend the computer and resume
it, and the brightness will be setup to the last setup you left when
playing with the brightness controls. Thus, the value in the kernel
persists.

You can also test this with the CLI:

# cd /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0
# echo 10 brightness # Nothing happens
# cat actual_brightness
10
# echo 5 brightness # Nothing happens
# cat actual_brightness
5

suspend computer
resume computer

Now the brightness level is set to 5 and the screen finds itself at that
level.

In the backend, the controls are changing the brightness levels, it is
just that during an Xorg Session with NVIDIA proprietary drivers, the
screen's real brightness is not updated. As if the hardware signal to
the screen is never sent, except when in the console or upon resume.



I replaced the official proprietary NVIDIA driver nvidia-331 with
nvidia-340 from xorg-edgers and the problem persists. nvidia-340
(340.76) is the latest driver for the legacy card Quadro FX 880M of my
Lenovo W510.



I tried acpi_backlight=vendor on grub to novail. It even stopped working
on the TTY. Putting grub as it was restored the functionality back in
the TTY. Under X11, the problem persists.

I fully understand that there are no resources to test this.  Still, the
bug is valid and I cannot provide more input.  It should be remained to
'new' to avoid expiration.  It should not expire; it exist for real.
And having this bug open, someone else having the same problem might one
day stumble upon it.

BTW, what do you mean by 'live environment'?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1389215] Re: Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg because of Nvidia proprietary driver.

2015-03-06 Thread Hans Deragon
Ah, I understand.  No I cannot test it with the latest version of
Ubuntu.  I do not have a spare computer to do so.  However, it is still
relevant to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Thar, which is a LTS and for which I
hope this bug will be fixed.  Since I use Ubuntu as my main OS, I need
stability and thus, I only use LTS versions.

Greetngs M. Penalver.  I noticed that you have put back this bug in
Imcomplete with the additional tag needs-vivid-test.  I fail to
understand what else I can provide you.  What does needs-vivid-test
mean and how can I perform that test on my system?  The problem still
exist, is real and should not expire in 60 days.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1389215] Re: Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg because of Nvidia proprietary driver.

2015-02-25 Thread Hans Deragon
apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected possible-manual-nvidia-install

** Description changed:

  Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg.  When pressing the
  keys fnhome and fnend on my Lenovo W510, I see the indicator on
  the screen showing the level of brightness changing, so key mapping is
  not the problem.  However, the brightness is not changing.
  
  On the kernel level, I have the single following device:
  
  # cd /sys/class/backlight
  # ls -l
  total 0
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov  3 17:16 acpi_video0 - 
../../devices/pci:00/:00:03.0/:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0
  
  When playing with the fnhome and fnend, the value of
  /sys/class/backlight/brightness changes accordingly.  The screen
  brightness does not change.
  
  Performing:
  
  # echo 10 brightness
  
  ...does not have any effect (regardless of the value provided, 10 being
  just an example).
  
  WORKAROUND
  
  There is an odd workaround.  Simply go to the console using
  CTRLALTF1 and using the fnhome and fnend keys, brightness
  then changes.  Return to Unity / Xorg with CTRLALTF7 and the
  selected brightness persists.
  
  NON WORKING WORKAROUND
  
  On the web, I read that adding:
  
  Option RegistryDwords EnableBrightnessControl=1'
  
  in xorg.conf might fix the problem.  I do not have an xorg and when I
  let the proprietary Nvidia driver generate one and add this option, X
  does not start anymore.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1389215] Re: Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg because of Nvidia proprietary driver.

2014-11-15 Thread Hans Deragon
Discovered another behaviour.  If you play with the brightness controls
under Xorg, nothing changes.  However, suspend the computer and resume
it, and the brightness will be setup to the last setup you left when
playing with the brightness controls.  Thus, the value in the kernel
persists.

You can also test this with the CLI:

# cd /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0
# echo 10 brightness # Nothing happens
# cat actual_brightness 
10
# echo 5 brightness # Nothing happens
# cat actual_brightness 
5

suspend computer
resume computer

Now the brightness level is set to 5 and the screen finds itself at that
level.

In the backend, the controls are changing the brightness levels, it is
just that during an Xorg Session with NVIDIA proprietary drivers, the
screen's real brightness is not updated.  As if the hardware signal to
the screen is never sent, except when in the console or upon resume.

2014-11-14 Thread Hans Deragon
Reverted to using NVIDIA proprietary drivers because Nouveau cannot
resume from  sleep (year old critical issue:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-
nouveau/+bug/884)

The problem occurs only with NVIDIA proprietary drivers versions 304.117
and 331.38, and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

A month ago, I was running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and it worked flawlessly
with NVIDIA proprietary driver.  I did not take note which version it
was though; I assume it was the latest since usually this is what I
select.  Because it was working with 12.04, the problem might not be
with the driver per se, but the interaction between it and the
graphical/kernel environment.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1389215] Re: Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg.

2014-11-10 Thread Hans Deragon
Some more clarification.  I tried under KDE Plasma 5.1 (Neon) and still
I could not change the brightness of the backlight.

However, the CLI commands that fail in a terminal running under an Xorg
session work flawlessly under a console (CTRLALTF1).

cd /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0

echo 5 brightness   # Works under the console!
echo 10 brightness  # Works under the console!

This all suggest that somehow, Xorg is inhibiting the brightness
control.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1389215] [NEW] Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg.

2014-11-04 Thread Hans Deragon
Public bug reported:

Brightness controls are not working in Unity / Xorg.  When pressing the
keys fnhome and fnend on my Lenovo W510, I see the indicator on
the screen showing the level of brightness changing, so key mapping is
not the problem.  However, the brightness is not changing.

On the kernel level, I have the single following device:

# cd /sys/class/backlight
# ls -l
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov  3 17:16 acpi_video0 - 
../../devices/pci:00/:00:03.0/:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0

When playing with the fnhome and fnend, the value of
/sys/class/backlight/brightness changes accordingly.  The screen
brightness does not change.

Performing:

# echo 10 brightness

...does not have any effect (regardless of the value provided, 10 being
just an example).

WORKAROUND

There is an odd workaround.  Simply go to the console using
CTRLALTF1 and using the fnhome and fnend keys, brightness
then changes.  Return to Unity / Xorg with CTRLALTF7 and the
selected brightness persists.

NON WORKING WORKAROUND

On the web, I read that adding:

Option RegistryDwords EnableBrightnessControl=1'

in xorg.conf might fix the problem.  I do not have an xorg and when I
let the proprietary Nvidia driver generate one and add this option, X
does not start anymore.

Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS with latest updates as of this writing.
