[Bug 72120] Re: Screen brightness not altered when AC adapter is unplugged
Hello, it appears that this is an issue with HAL rather than guidance- power-manager, one of the scripts which is executed when attempting to change the screen brilliance via HAL is broken under Edgy because it relies on Bash features, but Edgy uses dash to execute scripts by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power- manager/+bug/65028 -- Screen brightness not altered when AC adapter is unplugged https://launchpad.net/bugs/72120 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Can you run lshal --monitor, then unplug the AC adapter and see if anything changes? ** Changed in: kde-guidance (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => sebas Status: Unconfirmed => Needs Info -- Screen brightness not altered when AC adapter is unplugged https://launchpad.net/bugs/72120 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 72120] Re: Screen brightness not altered when AC adapter is unplugged
Sorry, what I meant to say in the original bug report is that "gnome power manager" worked in Dapper. It seems that it doesn't work in Edgy either, I think this is a HAL issue instead. -- Screen brightness not altered when AC adapter is unplugged https://launchpad.net/bugs/72120 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
