Thanks for the fix, Ted! This might need to be filed as a different bug, but I notice that when I set the brightness_ac value in gconf- editor to 100 (the named maximum), after the now functional dimming and re-brightening it doesn't actually brighten to the max for my LCD as it should according to my settings, as far as I know. After re- brightening, I can use the brightness control keys on my keyboard to increase the brightness a bit further. Does anyone know of a setting I am missing that is the cause of this issue, or is it another bug?
I also notice that setting the max value for brightness_ac above 100 breaks the dimming feature. Perhaps the brightness applet is also breaking the dimming, as Khashayar Naderehvandi seemed to notice. -- Dim on idle does not brighten with activity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
