Update for me: I have kernel 6.8.0-48. Hardware: Dell OptiPlex 5480 AIO All-In-One with a touchscreen monitor. When I use both "intel_iommu=igfx_off" and "acpi_backlight=native", this solves both this bug and bug #2049248. Without those extras, I continue to have problems. -- You received this

@rebbel — You haven't told us what error you received. My guess is that you need to use sudo. Do this: 1. Enter "sudo su" (without the quotation marks). It'll ask you for your password. 2. Enter the entire "cat" command again. 3. Enter "exit" (without the quotation marks). Then you can continu

Update: One of the devs from Zabbly has advised me, and his workaround has helped me. Add "acpi_backlight=native" to the kernel command line. To do this, edit /etc/default/grub, locate GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, and add "acpi_backlight=native". Finish with "sudo update-grub". This isn't a solut

To add some useful information to this, a workaround (explained in duplicate bug #2078054) is to install the Zabbly mainline kernel [1]. This also seems to be related to bug #2049248 (but not a duplicate). As far as I can tell, this affects certain Intel displays, though I could be wrong. [1] ht

There is a solution to this, albeit not the greatest. However, it does point to how the devs can fix this. Apparently, for reasons known only to itself, Canonical removes some of the drivers from the kernels when releasing them. A maintainer, Zabbly, maintains the mainline kernel but including th
