Re: Backlight doesn't work with latest Maverick kernel

That seems to be the same steps I took so I don't have any ideas why your netbook doesn't work. I can report that after my last post I did two things: There was a big upgrade, something about recreating my kernel that I installed. I also changed the time before my NC10+ (alias N150) goes into sleep ...

Re: Backlight doesn't work with latest Maverick kernel

No idea on any upgrades, sorry. I wonder how different is your netbook or if this workaround / fix is intended for that model. If it is then can you trace back your steps and make sure you have applied the workaround correctly. I have expanded the length of time before my netbook goes into suspend m...

Re: Backlight doesn't work with latest Maverick kernel

Well, I'm glad that the workaround works for you. It's definitely a problem with the power management. While I use the netbook never a problem but if I leave for a few minutes the power management function kicks off and the problem appears.

Re: Backlight doesn't work with latest Maverick kernel

I think I spoke too soon :D the flickering came back after I put the netbook to hybernate.


I have now applied the workaround suggested by ignaciogarcia and hopefully the problem doesn't come back.

My thanks to anyone that has contributed with ideas and solutions.
