Same bug still exists. Am doing a fresh install of Saucy 13.10 on
Gateway NV79, but the install CD won't turn on the laptop display LCD
backlight. There is no way to provide further information since I cannot
directly install the 13.10 from CD image. Even if I attach an external
monitor, the install CD formats the monitors for dual screen but puts
all the install information on the darkened laptop monitor. By shining a
bright light onto the screen, i can vaguely make out the displayed
information and select TRY UBUNTU. When that comes up, I am able to
navigate to settings, displays, mirror display, and continue with the
install via the external monitor.
