@jango - thanks for helping and putting this with 100 paper cuts. You are right that there has been a little mix up during reporting, but this is a real bug and this is the correct place to discuss the bug where: resetting your laptop resets brightness to 100% regardless of your settings. This bug occurs across many laptops, so I don't think it is necessary to file a new report with information on each laptop. In fact, this bug has been traced to the ACPI where the ACPI object for brightness is an optional function not implemented by every laptop's ACPI. If your laptop does not have this optional function, you will see this bug.

I think, that there are some issues mixed! To make it clear: The current brightness level is not saved at all on shut down. The setting is read out of System -> Preferences -> Power Management -> "Set display brightness to:" Please set this parameter to a value you like. On start up the brightness will always be as you set there. If not, this is really a bug. So please open a new bug with detailed description of your laptop. If you like, that the current brightness level at shutdown is remembered on startup, please set the importance to wishlist.

I detected that problem is in acpi kernel driver video.ko and gnome-power-manager. I use ubuntu 8.10 with kernel 2.6.27-7-generic on 64-bit platform. This is a regression bug, because in previous version ubuntu 8.04LTS display backlight works ok. Aditional comments: I detected that acpi/video.ko kernel 2.6.24 driver in ubuntu 8.04 didn't work and backlight was controlled only by ACPI bios, because /proc/bus/acpi/video/*/backlights always return that backlight is not supported. In kernel 2.6.27 driver return correct backlight values: cat /proc/acpi/video/C085/C144/brightness levels: 100 51 30 37 44 51 58 65 72 79 86 93 100 current: 65 New video driver trying to get current backlight level from ACPI BQI object but it is optional ACPI function. When ACPI does not support BQI object driver will set back-light to maximum value. Pls. see code video.c bellow: if (device->cap._BQC) device->backlight->props.brightness = acpi_video_get_brightness(device->backlight); else device->backlight->props.brightness = device->backlight->props.max_brightness; backlight_update_status(device->backlight); When ACPI BQI is not supported video.ko or gnome-power-manager should save and restore current backlight value from config file. Workaround: Currently I workaround this problem by change kernel driver video.ko to set 50% backlight when BQI object is not found (Pls see patch bellow). I also changed gnome-power-manager settings by run gconf-editor and set following configuration values in /apps/gnome-power/manager/backlight by changing keys values to: brightness_ac = 50 brightness_battery = 30 brightness_dim_battery = 30 but it is obvious workaround." -- Laptop TFT monitor - brightness level is not saved https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35223 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm on Toshiba L350D-10i Laptop When I install kde-guidance-powermanager and I reboot, brightness can be set with the keys on the keyboard. Second reboot results in the brightness keys being unusable again and brightness can't be set. All following reboots leave the brightness keys unusable. I made a dmesg from the first reboot when it worked and I also made a dmesg from the second reboot when the keys didn't work. Comparing both didn't show any big differences.

Confirming with Intrepid on a MacbookPro 3rd Gen Santa Rosa. Setting a medium brightness level (about 50%) and suspending&resuming gives me a 100% bright display. The values provided by my brightness driver (applesmc) are still at the medium value (50%), but gnome-power-manager ignores them.

I also have a similar problem on Hardy. When the computer idle the backlight level is reduced to the minimum, but when moving the mouse the backlight level is always set to half level...

I managed to fine-tune the LCD brightness to a greater degree by adding the 'Brightness Applet' to the Gnome Panel. 1.Right-click a specified location on the Gnome Panel and select 'Add to Panel...' 2.Select 'Brightness Applet'. To achieve 7 adjustable levels of brightness on the function keys (instead of the usual 3), and to keep the LCD brightness from being set at the maximum after every reboot: 1.In a terminal, type “gksudo gedit”. 2.Open the file “/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist”. 3.Add a new line “blacklist video”. 4.Reduce brightness to mimimum (or desired level). 5.Reboot. -- Laptop TFT monitor - brightness level is not saved https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/35223 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just to expand the use case of this bug report: I (using Hardy) like having the backlight dim on idle. That means that I have the backlight at 100% and, after a period of no use, my backlight dims. That is great. When I move the mouse it increases the backlight to 80% and I have to increase it with the hotkeys.
