[Bug 264468] Re: GNOME desktop brightness automatically dimmed at startup

2011-07-11 Thread Phill Bailey
That was a good few years ago, Pedro! I still have the same laptop
though and can happily say that the problem seems to have been resolved
in future versions.

2008-12-21 Thread Phill Bailey
I've posted a dirty hack on the ubuntu forums, follow the link above. It
requires a little terminal kung-fu, but is completely explained.

The problem, interestingly seems to have been resolved in Intrepid 8.10.

[Bug 264468] [NEW] GNOME desktop brightness automatically dimmed at startup

2008-09-03 Thread Phill Bailey
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Please see also http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5716361

Currently there are a number of disgruntled users whose displays are set to be 
dimmed at boot, including myself, who are seeking a solution to stop this 
dimming at boot.
Power Management preferences used to have an option to set the brightness at 
boot, which now seems to have disappeared. I've had a look through gconf-editor 
and according to the key /apps/gnome-power-manager/backlight/brightness_ac my 
brightness is set to 100 at startup, however it is still 0% at boot according 
to the brightness applet.

How do we boot up with 100% brightness?

As you will see from the forum thread, it's a variety of graphics cards and 
laptops which are affected.
Personally I am using gnome-power-manager 2.22.1-1ubuntu4 on Ubuntu 8.04

Thanks,
Phill Bailey

[Bug 203527] Re: Clicking on clock applet hangs gnome-panel

2008-07-07 Thread Phill Bailey
I have found the same issue, however in my experience removing all
locations (of which I had only one) solved the problem to some extent.
There is still a short lag between clicking the clock and the calendar
appearing, during which time the Window list is also frozen, but the
calendar does appear, which was not the case before. I'm loathe to try
uninstalling Evolution, as the calendar in the panel is useful to have
easily at hand. I'm using Hardy and a fresh install from the 8.04 live
CD did not exhibit this issue, an update appears to have caused it.
