No, as I said I am using a thinkpad X60s. I killed my running gnome-power-manager and ran
gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose After letting my computer sit idle for a couple minutes (with the screen open), I came back to g-p-m spewing messages and the brightness meter stuck on the screen. I'm attaching the g-p-m log output. Although g-p-m's log has lots of "emitting button-pressed : brightness- up" messages, I did not touch my computer to get it into this state. This seems to be very easy to reproduce, so let me know if there's anything else you would like me to try. ** Attachment added: "gnome-power-manager log output" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8863244/gpm.txt -- [gutsy tribe 3] screen brightness meter randomly displays on macbook https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
