Display brightness control not working in 17.10

I just upgraded to ubuntu 17.10 and now display brightness controls are not working, and i am not able to change display brightness at all. But it was working perfectly in 17.04

I also tried this method, but still not working. When I saw system details, it shows unknown graphics.

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "card0"
        Driver      "intel"
        Option      "Backlight"  "intel_backlight"
        BusID       "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

What can I do now?


Solution 1:

  1. Open a terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T
  2. Edit the /etc/default/grub file by running:

    sudo nano /etc/default/grub
    
  3. Change the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line to:

    GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor acpi_osi=Linux"
    
  4. Press Ctrl+O to save

  5. Press Ctrl+X to exit
  6. Update GRUB by running:

    sudo update-grub
    
  7. Reboot
