I've got the same problem with my Dell Latitude D630, it worked fine with Gutsy but with Hardy (alpha 4 with latests updates) it's totally messed up, the brightness resets to maximum value very often (every ~15minutes). The problem appears with AC power plugged. And with or without working on the computer.
I'm running with gnome-power-manager: 2.21.1-0ubuntu1 -- g-p-m keeps setting brightness to default value from manually set one https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188698 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
