I've installed ubuntu 14.04 on my ASUS X550LC. Here I've found some issue:

  1. Bluetooth is not working.
  2. Brightness is going 100% after every reboot.
  3. Brightness and network controlling shortcut key is not working.
  4. Network LED (which should be green when connected with internet) is not working.

To solve brightness issue I have tried first and second solution from this question, but that does not worked.

To solve bluetooth, I have tried Blueman from Software center, but that does not worked.

  • how is bluetooth not working? Does the bt indicator show up in the title bar? Do you have a bluetooth mouse showing up in the battery indicator? I do have problems from the battery indicator -- mouse works until it shows up. – ubfan1 Oct 02 '14 at 05:53
  • No, bluetooth indicator isn't showing in the title bar. And when I turn bluetooth on from `System settings>Bluetooth` and hit the button (on/off) it shows bluetooth is on. But nothing happened. ANd I can't use any other option like Visibility(ON/OFF) and +/- option (that is for connecting or adding new devices). – opu 웃 Oct 02 '14 at 06:06
  • Please open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+t and paste your `lsusb` output by [editing](http://askubuntu.com/posts/512409/edit) your question. – P.-H. Lin Oct 02 '14 at 07:17
  • P.-H. Lin, I've edited my question. – opu 웃 Oct 02 '14 at 07:23
  • Hmmm... maybe you Bluetooth is connected to the PCI bus, could you please update it with `lspci -nn`? – P.-H. Lin Oct 02 '14 at 07:35
  • @P.-H. Lin, Question updated. – opu 웃 Oct 02 '14 at 07:55

    You Bluetooth is **Ralink RT3290 [1814:3298]**, which is not supported, see [Ralink RT 3290 Bluetooth Problem on Ubuntu 14.04](http://askubuntu.com/questions/453605/ralink-rt-3290-bluetooth-problem-on-ubuntu-14-04) for more information. – P.-H. Lin Oct 02 '14 at 08:06
  • @ P.-H. Lin, thanks a lot. Now bluetooth icon is appeared in the indicator. But it is still not working :( – opu 웃 Oct 02 '14 at 08:37

  • no solution!!!! – opu 웃 Oct 08 '14 at 08:24
  • Have you tried booting Ubuntu Utopic Unicorn Beta live to see if that fixes your problems? If so, you should wait a week or two for Utopic. I know it fixes a lot of hardware bugs. And I mean a lot. It's like the main focus of the release, rather than getting new features. For this reason, many people are calling Utopic "the boring release". – John Scott Oct 09 '14 at 01:46
  • No I haven't tried it. – opu 웃 Oct 09 '14 at 19:30

For the brightness issue please do the following.

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub

find the line that has "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT" and change it as following

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi="

save and close gedit then issue the following command into the terminal

sudo update-grub
