This temporary thing will stay for 5 years at least, i saved this mail, will send it back. If this is not going to be implemented in dkp then people will just stick with HAL or will write their own service for this, including myself, without this small brightness applet on my panel which talk to HAL i can't change my brightness at *all* and i'm not going to *wait* for the XBACKLIGHT, also because laptop life in my hands is two years. I agree with Richard, bugzilla of power managers will be full of bugs "my brightness is not working after upgrade" and since i'm the maintainer of Xfce power manager i want to avoid this at any price. I have a suggestion, since backlight class exists in the kernel and it *works*, then best to have separate addon service from dkp just for doing these stuff, this will keep *users* happy, then dropping this service will be something easy without touching the dkp.
