Thinkpad X41 and gnome-power-manager 2.19.6-0ubuntu2. I have the same
issue, "dim display when idle" is unchecked, but after the laptop has
been idle for a while, the brightness is changed to whatever value is in
"set display brightness to:". I think this started happening for me only
a week or so ago and I assumed that g-p-m 2.19.6 broke this and that the
following changelog entry is the culprit:

   * Try to discover the laptop backlight type by checking the backlight
     state before we try and set it. Fixes #436717

However, that doesn't fit to the original filing date of this bug, so I
am not certain if the underlying bug is the same (or maybe I did not
notice it earlier).

A log from "gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose" is attached. It
shows all the lines which appear when the laptop has been idle for a
while and g-p-m decides to change the brightness to full. No buttons
were pressed while that log was generated, even if the log claims so.

As a side note, fixing a brightness related bug #61184 would be
appreciated :P
