Bug Description
Ubuntu 9.10 with latest updates, booted with KMS, provides /sys/devices/
/sys/devices/
Booting with i915.modeset=0 and then xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL legacy
allows to change display brightness, but I get blinking screen on console (Alt-Ctrl-F1)
The trick with
lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=80
works.
