Title:
8086:2a42 [eMachines E725] My backlight is off
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I just updated to Ubuntu 11.04 Beta to find that the backlight of my
monitor is off (or very low) and I can't turn it on.
The backlight intensity control never worked on any previous version
of Ubuntu (the Fn key controls responded, and changed a bar on screen,
but never really changed the backlight). The Fn key On/Off worked
before. In the new kernel, the backlight is off (or very low) by
default and the controls does not work, so I can't turn it on.
Now I am using the old 2.6.35-28-generic kernel to report this bug. I
hope enough info on the system has been gathered. My laptop is an
eMachines E725. lspci report the following about the video device:
