Similar to the original poster's problem, I am unable to change the brightness by dragging the slider or pressing the + and - keys. When doing so, the applet simply closes. However, I am able to change the brightness by scrolling up and down with my mouse/touchpad and arrow keys.
Well, my Fn brightness keys work correctly, so this isn't an issue for me. The main problem is that it is quite slow and jerky when using the applet to change the brightness. The changes used to be smooth and quick in earlier Ubuntu versions (until Lucid I think). I am using Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/566134 Title: brightness-applet behaviour is good -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
