[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 428054] Re: xrandr backlight property control missing (when using KMS?)

Changing status back to confirmed. Thanks for the post/comment, trendzetter. The last time I checked it, it was there, now it isn't... The weird thing is, that the backlight control actually works as expected (using quick keys), for me, without xrandr --prop showing anything... ** Changed in: xse

Berbhard, what hardware do you have? Also, I think we should have separate bugs for separate releases (what's the usual policy in those cases, anyway?) I know, I don't have Macbook, but GM965... xserver-xorg-video-intel updated to 2.9.0 today (yesterday?) and the problem is fixed for me now. Bryce

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 428054] Re: xrandr backlight property control missing (when using KMS?)

Cheers for the hint, executorvs! However, that doesn't work. The options I have for xrandr BACKLIGHT_CONTROL are native, legacy, combination and kernel, and none of them makes any difference. The only difference to my comment #2 is that now I can see and select different backlight control methods

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 428054] Re: xrandr backlight property control missing (when using KMS?)

trendzetter, that workaround does not work for me. And, the recent kernel update, with backlight fix on Intel driver, didn't help neither. Nor both of them together... -- xrandr backlight property control missing (when using KMS?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428054 You received this bug notif
