Public bug reported: I have dell inspiron 15r 7720 se with core i7
I ve reinstalled 13.10 several times and it doestn seem to work out properly. So doesnt seem to be my install problem I havent had such bugs on 12.04 lts version. I havent tried 13.04 . At first after installation, the brightness slider or adjusting using keys didnt seem to work. So i did something to make it work. Ii edited GNU_CMD_LINUX or whatever. its in the askubuntu forums anyways Now whenever i adjust brightness SOMETIME after boot, the system freezes. I think the bug has reduced if i use my system on battery Or even normally it freezes without adjusting brightness.But mostly on adjusting brightness this happens And i cannot install any other ati video driver (in software and updates app) or the update downloaded from amd ati website. Nothing seems to work out. If i install those , My system crashes and i cannot boot into it ever again. Its getting stuck on black screen during boot with X cursor to be frank, my laptop is not usable in ubuntu ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: brightness dell inspiron -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1249176 Title: Dell inspiron 15r freeze on adjusting brightness To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1249176/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
