Solution 1:
Have you tried this:
-
Open terminal ( Ctrl+Alt+T ) and type:
sudo cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub.bak sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
You will find this line in the new opened window:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
-
Change it to:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor"
-
Save and close the window and type this in the terminal:
sudo update-grub
Restart your system..
if above procedure doesn't work then repeat the same step but this time try to change the above mentioned line with:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pcie_aspm=force"
Note: The next line to the line mentioned above should be GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
not GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=Linux"
