hal 0.5.13-1ubuntu4 in karmic still uses backlight instead of actual_backlight. This causes gnome-power-manager to dim the display of my notebook (Dell Latitude E6400) on first startup and then increase it again to maximum because it thinks the brightness is zero (e.g. brightness = 0, actual_brightness = 15).
I've patched this version of hal to use actual_brightness instead of brightness in hald-addon-generic-backlight and can confirm that it fixes this problem. -- [ThinkPads] No brightness-notification - Bug in generic get_brightness function https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372874 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
