** Summary changed:

- gnome-power doesn't dim the screen after standby
+ Backlight level is inconsistent with actual backlight after S3 suspend resume

** Description changed:

+ Whenever I resume from suspend, my backlight level is at 100%. If I make
+ an adjustment to the level using gnome-power-manager it jumps to what
+ g-p-m thinks it should be.
+ 
+ Steps to reproduce:
+ 
+ 1. Decrease backlight level to e.g. 10%
+ 2. Suspend
+ 3. Resume
+ 
+ Expected result: backlight is at 10%
+ 
+ Actual result: backlight is at 100%, but g-p-m thinks still 10%.
+ "Increasing" the brightness with the keyboard sets it to 20%.
+ 
+ It's possible that this only affects mbp_nvidia_bl
+ 
+ Linux should resume with the same backlight level it had when it
+ suspended, or in any case, g-p-m should not let its internal level go
+ out of sync.

  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
  
  gnome-power-manager doesn't handle the standby well,
  normally it adjusted to have 50% brightness only on battery power, if I 
unplug the AC it works fine, but after resuming from standby I get my machine 
back with 100% brightness. Strangely the FN Keys are working ti dim it back.
  
  I would expect gnome-power at minimum to see that there is no AC and
  auto dim to 50% b. if it doesn't recognize the previous settings before
  standyby.
  
  If I open gnome-power manualy after resuming, by right clicking on the 
battery icon in status bar it dims to 50%
  So could it be possible that gnome-power is paused after standby?
  
  using up to date 8.10 i386 Desktop with  GnomePower 2.24.0
