In a duplicate (#243595) of this bug there is this comment: "I disabled "Dim display when idle" in both AC and BAT on Gnome Power Managment and it works OK. No need for kernel paramaters though. I'll keep testing."
I did this on Intrepid Alpha 1 and to my surprise i can't reproduce the bug anymore by unplugging my powercord or leaving my laptop for a few minutes untouched. When I enable "Reduce backlight brightness when inactive" again, the bug is back. -- [hardy]computer and touchpad is buggy when running on battery https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/189814 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
