Masi:
I think you misunderstood what I meant :)
The issue / workaround is not related to
Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight"
but to:
Option "TearFree" "true"
Option "DRI" "3"
The reason it was not working for you before, was that you had "Section
"Device" two times, so Xorg was using the first one, without the
TearFree + DRI 3.
This is not an issue Ubuntu can fix really, since its a bug in Xorg +
"AccelMethod" "sna" without the above workarounds to make it stop.
I fear if you jump to 16.10 you wont have the issue, but you will NOT be
able to use intel_backlight since xserver-xorg-video-intel is being
removed by default in the future. But I would guess by then your laptop
will probably have better support, without the need for these "hacks"
Hope all that made sense. Glad I was able to help you out :)
