This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ACPI / video: Add Dell Inspiron 5737 to the blacklist to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.27. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 0e97b657873530b69fa3210bcc3785b24ca5837b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Edward Lin <yidi.lin@canonical.com> Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2014 16:13:42 +0800 Subject: ACPI / video: Add Dell Inspiron 5737 to the blacklist commit 08a56226d84706d402372d891550e130ef5df9f0 upstream. With win8 capabiltiy, the ACPI backlight control is broken. The system also loses backlight setting when resuming from S3. Add this model to the the ACPI video detect blacklist to make backlight functionality work. Although backlight functionality works via video.use_native_backlight=1, this approach may be safer.
