Bug Description
Fresh install of a Vivid Vervet Ubuntu GNOME daily iso.
Adding debugging information from https:/
I found that
echo 8 > /sys/class/
worked to lower my screen brightness, without playing with kernel parameters.
Booting with the kernel parameter: acpi_backlight=
Booting with the kernel parameter: video.use_
Booting with the kernel parameter: video.use_
Creating /usr/share/
with the contents:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight" # use your backlight that works here
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
and rebooting does resolve the issue.
