On an Avatar brand Mercury ultrabook, aviu-145a2. I have reported this bug to Avatar, who don't officially support linux, but they assured me they will look into it since they are a small company that runs a lot of linux.

If I can give additional information, please let me know. I am happy to help but not at the level to do any of the coding. Though I'm trying to learn.
