Package: hal Version: 0.5.11-1 Severity: normal When my Dell D420 is running on battery, the LCD is dimmed after a short period of inactivity, in accordance with my preference in g-p-m However, when activity occurs (eg mouse movement) the screen brightness resumes to a certain level, ignoring any changes to brightness I have made with the brightness control hotkeys. gnome-power-manager does not allow me to set the brightness chosen when battery mode is activated.
Correct behaviour would be to return brightness to the level it was before the idle-dimming occurred. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages hal depends on: ii adduser 3.107 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii hal-info 20080508-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - fdi f ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.74-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libexpat1 1.95.8-4 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libgcc1 1:4.3.0-4 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.3-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libhal-storage1 0.5.11~rc2-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libhal1 0.5.11~rc2-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libsmbios1 0.13.13-1 Provide access to (SM)BIOS informa ii libstdc++6 4.3.0-4 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-9 userspace USB programming library ii libvolume-id0 0.114-2 libvolume_id shared library ii lsb-base 3.2-11 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii mount 2.13.1-3+lenny1 Tools for mounting and manipulatin ii pciutils 1:2.2.10-2 Linux PCI Utilities ii pm-utils 1.1.0-1 utilities and scripts for power ma ii udev 0.114-2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo ii usbutils 0.73-7 Linux USB utilities Versions of packages hal recommends: ii eject 2.1.5-7 ejects CDs and operates CD-Changer pn libsmbios-bin <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
