Fix brightness control issue with Intel card in Ubuntu and Linux Mint
Raw
20-intel.conf
Now, you have to follow this suggestion given by people all around the world: edit the /etc/default/grub file in super user mode and insert acpi_backlight=none to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT variable. For example, here is what I have:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet acpi_backlight=none"
1
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet acpi_backlight=none"
After editing this file, run sudo update-grub and reboot. Backlight keys should work now.
You can get rid of the 20-intel.conf file if you have used it.
