Description Germano Massullo 2012-09-29 08:46:05 UTC
Weeks ago I installed a fresh Fedora 17 LXDE on a Samsung N150, and when you unplug the battery you will have a low brightness level and you cannot change it with keyboard.
On Fedoraonline.it I found out a topic about this problem ( http://forum.fedoraonline.it/viewtopic.php?id=14254&p=2 ), and the user Virus found out that command that allows you to control brightness:
# setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=ff        (in this case maximum level)
I cloned the bugreport #637397 since it seems that the bug has been fixed, but it is still here...



+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #637397 +++

Description of problem:

The display brightness cannot be changed on a Samsung N150 plus netbook. The Gnome brightness control applet does not work ("Cannot get laptop panel brightness"), nor do the Fn keys.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

2.11.0-5.fc13


How reproducible:

see above

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please add drm.debug=0x04 to the kernel command line, restart computer, and attach

* your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available),
* X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log)
* output of the dmesg command, and
* system log (/var/log/messages)

to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link above.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information.

Thanks in advance.

I got the same problem using kernel-2.6.38-1.fc15.i686. You'll find the requested files attached. No xorg.conf present.

The laptop in question is a Samsung N210 Plus.

If more info is desired, please let me know.

*** Bug 582830 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

--- Additional comment from fedora on 2011-04-15 10:30:31 EDT ---

I also have an Samsung N210 (P2), same problem.

But I do wonder if this ticket is under the right category. I think it should be filled under Kernel, because it needs a kernel module to work.

--- Additional comment from freyraphael on 2011-05-30 07:00:54 EDT ---

Unfortunately, this bug is still present in F15. Still no brightness control.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 13.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '13'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

--- Additional comment from freyraphael on 2011-05-31 13:13:35 EDT ---

As I wrote yesterday, this problem is still existing in F15. What kind of additional information is needed?

--- Additional comment from vpodzime on 2011-06-03 05:19:47 EDT ---

I have the same problem on my N150 netbook. And also I have a problem with too dim backlight when running on battery. I think the core of these problems is described here -- Bug 647406

--- Additional comment from vpodzime on 2011-06-03 05:22:25 EDT ---

When booted while running on battery, I have value 7 in
/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness

--- Additional comment from receive.ie on 2011-06-10 06:28:14 EDT ---

I'm also having this problem, Fedora 15, lxde, 2.6.38.7-30.fc15.i686

--- Additional comment from freyraphael on 2011-08-22 08:12:34 EDT ---

Great, brightness control now works! But unfortunately, screen brightness sometimes flickers - changing text terminal ([Ctrl] + [Alt] + [F...]) stops flickering.

2.6.40.3-0.fc15.i686

--- Additional comment from freyraphael on 2011-08-25 09:50:08 EDT ---

As I just discovered, the screen brightness flickering appears:

* when Gnome tries to dim the screen (workaround: uncheck the option 'Dim screen to save power' in 'Gnome > System Settings > Screen),
* when moving the brightness button slowly around in 'Gnome > System Settings > Screen'.

But the problem does not appear when changing the screen brithness stepwise by keyboard commands.

--- Additional comment from vpodzime on 2011-09-29 15:43:32 EDT ---

The other problem is (at least for my samsung N145 netbook) that there are only three brightness levels -- minimum, little more than minimum and maximum. For everyday work all of them are unusable.

--- Additional comment from receive.ie on 2011-11-08 20:54:22 EST ---

I am still seeing this problem having upgraded to Fedora 16, kernel 3.1.0-7.fc16.i686

--- Additional comment from vpodzime on 2011-11-24 02:22:05 EST ---

Works great for me now with F16 and 3.1.1-2.fc16.i686.PAE kernel. The only remaining problem is that the brightness level is not preserved after reboot.

--- Additional comment from freyraphael on 2011-11-24 04:26:35 EST ---

Same here: 2.6.41.1-1.fc15.i686. Great!

--- Additional comment from endoflife on 2012-08-07 15:25:24 EDT ---

Comment 1 Vratislav Podzimek 2013-12-16 11:12:10 UTC
Brightness control works for me on my N150P in both F19 and F20. It just doesn't preserve brightness level when suspended.

Comment 2 Germano Massullo 2013-12-19 15:25:32 UTC
I attach lshw of a Samsung NC10 that seems to have the same VGA. On LXDE keybutton combo for brightness does not work. Only
#setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=ff 
manages to change to maximum level the brightness

Comment 3 Germano Massullo 2014-04-25 17:25:29 UTC
I just installed Fedora KDE spin on another computer of the same model family, and I confirm the bug

kernel 3.13.10-200.fc20.x86_64


product: NC210/NC110
vendor: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD.
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom Processor D4xx/D5xx/N4xx/N5xx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Atom Processor D4xx/D5xx/N4xx/N5xx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)

It is not possible to change backlight level with both with hardware keys / KDE brightness control.

Comment 4 Hans de Goede 2014-04-25 17:40:28 UTC
Hi,

Can people still having this problem please do the following:
1) open a terminal
2) become root (run "su -")
3) "cd /sys/class/backlight"
4) ls
5) for each directory in the ls output:
5.1) cd into the directory
5.2) "cat type"
5.3) make a note of the directory name + type
5.5) "cat max_brightness"
5.6) "cat brightness"
5.7) "echo some-value > brightness"
where some-value is the output of brightness +  10% of max_brightness
5.8) see if this changes the brightness of the screen, make a note of this
6) Copy and paste the notes you've made into a comment here.
7) Attach Xorg.log from the laptop here.

Thanks & Regards,

Hans

Comment 9 Hans de Goede 2014-04-25 18:07:51 UTC
Hi,

Thanks for the info.

Can you try booting with "acpi_backlight=vendor" on the kernel commandline ?

To do so, reboot then at the grub bootloader screen press ESC, then e to edit the current entry, then go to the long line with all the kernel parameters, and add the end add a space followed by "acpi_backlight=vendor" and then press ctrl+x to boot with the new cmdline.

Once booted in a terminal do "cat /proc/cmdline" to verify that the "acpi_backlight=vendor" is there. If it is try to change your backlight brightness. If this works please also try suspend / resume plugging in / out the power adapter, etc. Then report back here how things went for you. If everything went ok we can add a quirk for this laptop to do the acpi_backlight=vendor behavior by default.

Regards,

Hans

Comment 10 Hans de Goede 2014-04-25 18:24:50 UTC
Hi again,

I've been looking a bit more into the relevant kernel code. Can you please run the following commands and provide their output:

lsmod

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/board_name

And can you also do (as root):
modprobe samsung-laptop

And then run "dmesg > log" and attach the generated log file here ?

Thanks,

Hans

Comment 11 Hans de Goede 2014-04-25 18:34:51 UTC
One last remark, re-reading the bug report, it seems that originally you filed this bug using a Samsung N150P. but now you're testing with both an NC10 and NC210, correct ? Can you please provide the info I've requested for both models ?

I experienced this trouble on various Samsung netbook models but I reported all of them here. To retrieve info from those computers I have to contact their owners so it will require some days.

Ok, so some background info, it seems that the acpi_video brightness interface is broken on quite a lot of samsung netbook models. Since if it present it gets preferred over Samsung's own vendor firmware brightness code, this breaks brightness control on these laptops. To fix this we've a blacklist with systems on which not to use acpi_video's brightness control, this blacklist lives here:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/platform/x86/samsung-laptop.c#n1438

So the solution is (very likely) to add the laptops you've access to which show this problem to this list. Note that the N150P is already there, so that one should no longer show this problem. For the others please try booting with acpi_backlight=vendor on the kernel cmdline, check everything works as advertised that way and then do:

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name

cat /sys/class/dmi/id/board_name

And add the output of those commands here (like you already did for the NC210/NC110). Let me know when your list of laptops needing such a quirk is complete, then I'll write a kernel patch and do a test kernel build with that patch for you to test.

Comment 16 Hans de Goede 2014-05-01 13:17:33 UTC
Hi,

While waiting for info on the other models, I've gone ahead and created a patch to add a quirk for NC210 to the samsung-laptop driver. I've just started a kernel (scratch) build with the patch added:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=6803021
Note it is currently still building.

Can you please give this build a try, it should work without you needing to specify any kernel cmdline parameters. If you can confirm that it works I'll send the patch upstream ASAP.

Regards,

Hans

Comment 17 Germano Massullo 2014-05-01 17:25:58 UTC
The problem is that I don't own that netbook, I have putted my hands on it because I installed Fedora on it.
Now I contact the owner hoping that he will apply the test kernel without much troubles :)

Comment 18 Vratislav Podzimek 2014-05-05 10:27:45 UTC
Brightness control doesn't work on N145P with 3.15.* kernels. Echoing a value into /sys/class/brightness/intel_backlight/brightness works. However, acpi_backlight=vendor doesn't seem to help.

Yes, that is the plan, as soon as you can confirm that the fixed Fedora kernel fixes the problem without needing any kernel cmdline options. I'll send the patches upstream.

I'm also still awaiting testing results for the NC10, so that I can write a patch for that too.

I assume that the output you've provided is with acpi_backlight=vendor on the kernel commandline ?

Can you please walk through the debug steps provided here ?  :

http://hansdegoede.livejournal.com/13889.html

I specifically want to know if the brightness osd shows when you press the keys and if not which devices evemu-record shows, and if any of them show brightness keypresses.

Hans

With no additional kernel flags, evemu-record shows nothing.

No, I will try as soon as possible.

If you run 'lspci', there should be a "VGA compatible controller" device and that ID is its Bus ID (the first column).

But does any of these options cause evemu-record to see key-presses for the brightness ?

And when running gnome-3 can the brightness be controlled with the brightness slider in the system menu (the top right menu which also allows you to control network settings, etc.) ?

Comment 38 Hans de Goede 2014-10-01 09:57:09 UTC
Hi Germano,

I'm confused now, in comment 32 you write that evemu-record shows nothing, and now in comment 37 you write that it does show brightness key-presses. While both are about the NC10.

Also in comment 30 you write that both backlight interfaces work, so if comment 30 and 37 are right, then everything should just work.

Can you please:
1) boot the system without any special kernel commandline parameters
2) redo your tests from comment 30 
3) redo your tests from comment 37
4) describe exactly what happens when you try to change the brightness using the keys will logged into the desktop environment.
5) let us know which desktop environment you're using.

Note I need answer to all 5 items to be able to help you further, please provide an answer to all 5 in your next comment.

Regards,

Hans

I think that in comment 32 I choosed the wrong input for evemu-record, so I got no outputs while pressing FN keys. I will make tests again as soon as possible

***Answer to questions 1) 2) 3)***
Check the big text below


***Answer to question 4)***
Nothing happens when I try to change brightness with FN+backlight up / down keys (while logged in a LXDE session).
I tried with kernel flags:
- normal boot, without changing kernel boot flags
- video.use_native_backlight=1
- acpi_backlight=vendor
- acpi_osi="!Windows 2012"
- acpi_osi="!Windows 2009"

Below you will find logs from evemu-record listening on keyboard device. Note that evemu-recordo listening on Video input device resulted in no outputs.
Tests have been executed with kernel flags:
- normal boot, without changing kernel boot flags
- video.use_native_backlight=1
- acpi_backlight=vendor
- acpi_osi="!Windows 2012"
- acpi_osi="!Windows 2009"

I am going to attach dmesg file for each of them.

Comment 41 Germano Massullo 2014-10-16 14:45:13 UTC
Created attachment 947650 [details]
NC10 dmesg for each kernel boot option

Comment 42 Hans de Goede 2014-10-16 14:51:21 UTC
Hi Germano,

Thanks for all the tests and logs. Looking at the test results, both the keys, and the actual brightness controls seem to work fine. The problem seems to be that the lxde environment simply lacks support for listening to the brightneskeys, and adjusting the brightness when the brightness keys are pressed.

Regards,

Hans

Ok, I just filled a bug against LXDE https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1153700

As soon as possible I will try to get the Samsung NC210 to complete the other tests you need
