Changing the values for gnome power manager didn't really solve the
problem , as I had mentioned before. I'm now using Icewm , without
gnome-power-manager and the problem with the screen brightness still
exists. I suppose this is a problem with acpi , rather than with gnome-
power-manager.

Is this really a bug with Ubuntu - Linux in general. As far as I've

I was listening to my Hard drive , when running Ubuntu.I could hear the
disk heads parking , but the disk itself doesn't spin down.It spins down
-standby mode- when one runs 'hdparm -y /dev/sda'.It stayed in standby
for quite a long time.Doesn't this seem a little odd ?I thought it was
spinning
So , the hard disk doesn't exactly go into suspend when the disk head is
parked, so the kernel doesn't get to know that the disk head is
parked(because standby=parking) - it interprets this as a sign that the
hard disk is in Active/Idle mode.So it doesn't bother stopping data from
being written to
of my hard
disk , that is the problem.If I could do that , with -B 1 , the problem
with my hard disk will be solved , could anyone verify this on their
hard disks?

That might be true , but honestly my laptop gets too warm to keep it on
