Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
After updating Toshiba laptop to latest maverick I can now no longer change the panel brightness. The notify indicator comes up to show the slider as I adjust the brightness with the Fn+ function keys but the brightness doesn't actually change. a...@hactar:/proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD$ cat brightness levels: 10 15 30 40 55 65 80 100 current: 100 In addition testing the brightness panel applet it sticks on 100% and refuses to let me change it. if I click the brightness applet I get the pop up slider but if I click anywhere on the slider it disappears and doesn't change. Scrolling mouse wheel up and down does nothing also. I don't know if these are related.
