On my system, I can find it via Save Screen Backlight Brightness of backlight:intel_backlight $ systemctl | grep backlight.service | awk '{print $1}' systemd-backlight@backlight:intel_backlight.service systemd-backlight@leds:dell::kbd_backlight.service $ systemctl status systemd-backlight@backlight:intel_backlight.service It should be 'Active: active (exited)' -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270579 Title: On laptops, screen brightness and keyboard backlight isn't memorized between sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dell-sputnik/+bug/1270579/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
