If you can apply the patch, we could see if you have the same behavior than Nate with his hardware: when setting a very low value (for him, it's in the range 1 to 5) to /sys/class/backlight/<hardware>/brightness his screen does not turn on at all. I would like to know if /sys/class/backlight/<hardware>/actual_brightness is then saying something different than /sys/class/backlight/<your hardware>/brightness.<br />
On my computer the backlight goes on as soon as I put 1 to /sys/class/backlight/<hardware>/brightness, so I cannot reproduce this.<br />
I hope I'm clear enough :)</p></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R122 Powerdevil</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D13095">https://phabricator.kde.org/D13095</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>thsurrel, Plasma, broulik, ngraham<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>sharvey, zzag, ngraham, romangg, plasma-devel, ragreen, Pitel, ZrenBot, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, apol, mart<br /></div>
