Chris this is not a duplicate of #478308. The title of the current bug is very clear: "'dim display when idle' only dims but doesn't restore the previous value when not idle anymore." #478308 states "Dim when idle won't turn off". These are separate bugs. You and other users have posted descriptions of several different bugs here, all relating to display dimming, and perhaps these different bugs should be filed as separate reports. The current bug report is not resolved by removing g-p-m, because that stops display dimming. What is desired is for the display to still dim, but to restore the previous brightness value rather than some default brightness when the mouse/keyboard is activated again.
The bug described in this report would be resolved easily enough, if g-p-m were to remember the current user-setting of the brightness level, and then restore that value after dimming. -- [Karmic] "dim display when idle" only dims but doesn't restore the previous value when not idle anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392122 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 [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
