Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Many of the recent Apple MacBooks have a large number of LCD backlight
levels. The GPM uses XRandR to modify the backlight. However, the gpm-
brightness-xrandr smooth brightness function does not take the number of
brightness levels into account. On recent Macbooks, this leads to some
20000 brightness-set calls on startup, an activity that takes about one
and a half minute. During this time, GPM is not responsive. Attached is
a patch that introduces scaled stepping, which fixes the problem.

** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

GPM unresponsive for two minutes after startup on Macbooks
