** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
  
  Release: Karmic i686
  Package version: gnome-power-manager 2.28.1-0ubuntu1
  
- 
  I am on a Dell mini 10, running a clean install of Karmic i686, fully updated.
  After startup, the screen brightness is at 100%, no matter what it is set to 
under Gnome-power-manager.
- The other problem is, the screen goes blank after about 5 min of inactivity, 
also regardless of the settings.
- The brightness buttons didn't work at all after the installation, so that 
there was no way to change the screen brightness. Adding 
'apci_brightness=vendor' to boot options made the brightness buttons work, but 
the settings are still ignored.
