The problem still happens with Ubuntu 14.04. I'm using an Asus K43SD (Intel® Pentium(R) CPU B970 @ 2.30GHz × 2 and GeForce 610M/PCIe/SSE2 GPU).
Steps to reproduce: 1. Using Settings > Brightness & Lock (or Brightness Indicator <https://launchpad.net/~indicator-brightness/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages>), set the screen brightness to minimum (see attachement for details). 2. Wait until the screen turns off (in my case, 5 minutes). 3. Wake up the screen by moving the mouse/typing on the keyboard → the screen brightness is back to 100% (Not OK) → Brightness indicator indicates brightness=0 → Brightness level in Settings is also to the minimum, which is in contradiction with the fact that screen brightness is to the max. If I scroll down on the brightness indicator, the screen will immediately go to the dimmest brightness. I hope a solution can be found for this issue! :) ** Attachment added: "brightness-settings.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/896595/+attachment/4177063/+files/brightness-settings.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/896595 Title: Ubuntu does not remember LID brightness To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/896595/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
