Checked with 3.1.3. Still doesn't work. Given that this is a regression, can you try to bisect this? Also, please boot with drm.debug=0xe added to the kernel cmdline and grab the dmesg from both the broken and the working kernel (after once blanking the screen). Also, please test whether the latest kernel (preferrably the latest 3.4-rc) works any better. Depending upon the results, there's more to gather. But the bisect is usually excellent information for fixing a regression. Hm, reporters seems to have disappeared, closing as unreproducible. Please reopen if this is still an issue for you (with the request logfiles attached, please). |

After upgrading to Linux 3.1.1 I discovered that blanking a screen (e.g., due to inactivity) permanently disables the LCD backlight of my laptop: after the screen is blanked, I can not change its brightness via brightness adjustement keys (these keys work before blanking); a reboot is needed to make the screen bright again. The bug is not present in Linux 3.0.9.
