The computer starts responding slowly, although this could just be because of the large number of events being generated by g-p-m. While this is happening, changing the brightness manually using shortcut keys works, but g-p-m continues to change the brightness. The only way to stop this is to manually killall gnome-power-manager Also, I'm unable to login to a virtual terminal during this time as the password prompt fills up with @ symbols, which is the symbol that is output when my brightness -up and -down shortcuts are activated. It's as though the key is stuck down (dw, I checked and its not). Attached is the output from g-p-m --verbose. I did not change the brightness while it was logging. + This is on an MSI Wind U100 netbook.
