Bug#819576: linux-image-4.4.0-0.bpo.1-amd64: Brightness slowdown - Changing brightness takes some seconds and causes system slowdown



I uninstalled the 3 modules mentioned from kernel 4.4 and it didn't solve the problem.

"uname -a" command result:
Linux debian 4.4.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.4.6-1~bpo8+1 (2016-03-20) x86_64 GNU/Linux

"dkms status" command result:
bbswitch, 0.8, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64: installed
bbswitch, 0.8, 4.3.0-0.bpo.1-amd64, x86_64: installed
nvidia-current, 352.79, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64: installed
nvidia-current, 352.79, 4.3.0-0.bpo.1-amd64, x86_64: installed
virtualbox, 5.0.16, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64: installed
virtualbox, 5.0.16, 4.3.0-0.bpo.1-amd64, x86_64: installed

Please test without these modules installed.
