Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
As of 9-4-2007 updates to Gutsy, the brightness controls on my Thinkpad T23 no
longer work correctly when on battery power. Whenever I hit the brightness
control hot-keys, the brightness decreases to minimum and then increases one
notch on successive presses, then immediately jumps back down to minimum. This
happens regardless of settings in the power preferences. Intrerestingly, if I
slide the brightness slider, the brightness of the screen "flashes", with
seemingly random actual brightness levels at each % increment. Really odd. This
notkey has worked perfectly on this laptop from Hoary until now, and also works
when outside of gnome. presumably it is a built-in hardware function.
GPM version 2.19.6-0ubuntu4
** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu)
