Package: xfce4-power-manager
Version: 4.18.3-2
Severity: normal
After a upgrade this morning which did not include this package, the
brightness keys on this Clevo laptop no longer work.
I tried to install the version from experimental
xfce4-power-manager_4.19.1-1_amd64.deb
but there were too many problematic dependencies to sort out for a quick
test.
After the upgrade the only way I could control the screen brightness was
using an echo as root to
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

It seems that the setting to control the Brightness had been turned off.
There are still problems with the power manager since the last update to
version 4.18.3-2, but at least the bightness keys are now back.
