This only started happening with gnome-power-manager 2.31.90-0ubuntu3 released today. The previous version didn't have this happen. The bug fix for [Bug 614039] Re: gnome-power-manager crashed with signal 5 in _XError() seems to have caused this possibly. gnome-power-manager stopped crashing but now have to authenticate for changing backlight.
-- Authentication is needed to run '/usr/sbin/gnome-power-backlight-helper' as the super user when using "Reduce backlight brightness" or "Dim display when idle" options. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/623000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
