Comment 12 Rui Matos 2015-05-15 13:48:07 UTC
Can you post the output of:

$ cat /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/fujitsu-laptop/brightness
$ cat /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/fujitsu-laptop/max_brightness

?

Comment 13 Marco Nolden 2015-05-15 15:07:15 UTC
$ cat /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/fujitsu-laptop/brightness
0
$ cat /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/fujitsu-laptop/max_brightness
-1

The crash happened immediately after install. The kernel has been upgraded to 4.0.3-300.fc22.x86_64 now so I don't know the output of these commands before.

Comment 14 Rui Matos 2015-05-15 15:12:08 UTC
We'll fix the crash but backlight adjustment won't work for this laptop.

Is there any other devices listed under /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/ ?

Did backlight adjustment work before?

It's actually a desktop machine.

No, only the fujitsu

See above ;)

And I rebooted the 4.0.0-0.rc5.git4.1.fc22.x86_64 kernel, same outputs.

Ok thanks, but that's a kernel bug since it makes the rest of the system assume that there's a backlight when there actually isn't one. You should report that as a kernel bug.

The crash here will get fixed in the next gnome stable release.
