Adding the following, as per Pauls instructions, seems to have worked on my system (as far as suspend goes):
brt=`cat /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness` abrt=`cat /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/actual_brightness` if [ "$brt" != "$abrt" ]; then echo $abrt > /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness fi I notice that my function keys (for brightness) no longer "work". When I use them, the brightness slider appears, but I can't adjust the brightness of the screen. I'm not sure this is related... -- display is fully dimmed after resume from suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/451282 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
