Public bug reported:
Version of Ubuntu: jaunty (Beta)
Version of gnome-power-manager: 2.24.2-2ubuntu7
Hardware: Dell Inspiron mini 9
Last known working version: Intrepid
When I hit the brightness down key it reacts strangely. Sometimes the
brightness is reduced as expected but often brightness remains the same or is
increased. Especially if the brightness is already quite low. When I kill
gnome-power-manager I can adjust the brightness properly. Of course without
visual indication.
The attachment is the output of (I hit brightness down 10 times) :
gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose > verbose-mode-output.txt
output of xev after I killed gnome-power-manager (I hit the key only once):
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x0
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x0
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x0
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x0
output of lshal -m:
12:02:13.915: computer_logicaldev_input_0 condition ButtonPressed =
brightness-down
12:02:13.939: platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input condition
