Thanks for your feedback BandD. I found a bug in my patch that would prevent it to work if you set some of the brightness parameters to 0 or 100. For example if you had set brightness_ac to 100 (which is a quite reasonable value) it would not work.
I have fixed the bug and I am attaching a new version of the patch. I have also uploaded a new version of the compiled deb to the same location described in my previous messages. Please try this one and tell me if works. If it doesn't work, I would kindly ask you to send me the current values for brightness_ac, brightness_battery, and idle_brightness, together with some logging output from gnome-power-manager. To get a log of gnome-power-manager activity, kill the old instace with "killall gnome-power-manger" and call a new one redirecting the output to a log file. Something like this: gnome-power-manager --verbose --no-daemon 2> /tmo/gpm-log ** Attachment added: "80-fix-backlight.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15517357/80-fix-backlight.patch -- g-p-m does not honor its configuration for LCD brightness levels after multiple unplug-replug from AC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215484 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
