[Bug 1270579] Re: On laptops, screen brightness isn't memorized between sessions
Dear all! As you can read from bug description, I created Ubuntu package for saving and restoring backlight (brightness) level on laptops. This package installs one file - /etc/init.d/sysvinit-backlight (sysvinit script). You can install my package from PPA with the commands below: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nrbrtx/sysvinit-backlight sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sysvinit-backlight You can remove it by sudo apt-get purge sysvinit-backlight Please note: if you have installed the previous version of my script, please remove it by sudo rm /etc/rc?.d/?25backlight /etc/init.d/brightness /etc/rc?.d/?25brightness The script functionality is: * save backlight (brightness) levels of all video adapters on reboot and shutdown (runlevel 0 and 6) * load backlight (brightness) levels for all video adapters on boot (runlevel S and 2) * this version supports hybrid graphics The script options are: * sudo service sysvinit-backlight status (show current brightness levels and saved in files values) * sudo service sysvinit-backlight start (set saved level from files) * sudo service sysvinit-backlight stop (save current level to files) Known problems: * brightness resets to maximum on login to MATE session (may be related to https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-power-manager/issues/76) Changes: I removed all bashisms and made code more clear - thanks to Andreas Mohr (andi). I tested my package on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS, 14.04.2 LTS and Ubuntu 14.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270579 Title: On laptops, screen brightness isn't memorized between sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dell-sputnik/+bug/1270579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1270579] Re: On laptops, screen brightness isn't memorized between sessions
I wrote a couple of upstart scripts to save and retore brightness between bootups. I hope the scripts are smart enough to run unmodified in any system with /sys/class/backlight. You can find them at bitbucket with install instructions: https://bitbucket.org/jjchico/upstart-brightness Quick manual: cd /etc/init sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/jjchico/upstart-brightness/raw/d9a5d9484475eb1256d56c64b28e680a7aeae72c/brightness-store.conf sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/jjchico/upstart-brightness/raw/d9a5d9484475eb1256d56c64b28e680a7aeae72c/brightness-restore.conf Test reports and patches are wellcome (these are my first upstart scripts).

[Bug 1270579] Re: On laptops, screen brightness isn't memorized between sessions
This bug only affects stable releases but, because the lost of functionality it introduces isn't of high importance, it isn't a valid candidate for a stable release update. That means the script will never be officially published in Ubuntu, and the bug will just go away when systemd becomes the new init system. ** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Won't Fix ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: Confirmed = Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270579 Title: On laptops, screen brightness isn't memorized between sessions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/elementaryos/+bug/1270579/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
