Public bug reported: I am not sure if this is the right place to report this, so feel free to move it elsewhere.
It looks like the systemd-backlight service (/lib/systemd/system /systemd-backlight@.service) does not restore the brightness level (although it saves it before shut-down). However the following command does restore the saved brightness: sudo /lib/systemd/systemd-backlight load backlight:intel_backlight As a temporary solution to automate it at boot I am using the following line added to the root cron: @reboot /lib/systemd/systemd-backlight load backlight:intel_backlight - Ubuntu 4.10.0-20.22-generic 4.10.8 - Gnome 3.24 Please, let me know if you need more info. Thanks. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1686268 Title: Backlight brightness level not restored after reboot Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am not sure if this is the right place to report this, so feel free to move it elsewhere.
