Jim, actually that's a feature. Basically GPM backs off if you're just catching it when it goes idle and immediately waking it up again. It basically assumes that you're time is set too short for what you're working on. It's timing the amount of time you leave it idle. Now, it should starting idling again after a while. Please open another bug if that is not the case. -- Dim on idle does not brighten with activity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
