I spoke to Ted about this bug.
We have deliberately removed the AC brightness slider because it is a very
confusing and unpredictable feature, and I have to say that I agree.
Until gnome is able to work sensibly with user adjusted brightness, it would be
best not to annoy/confuse users. I regularly had to adjust my brightness
because gnome was obeying settings and changing it.
I think this should be re-filed as a wishlist to have a sane startup value
remembered and then the other brightness options to work relative to whatever
the current brightness is.
** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
