i've found out the same thing happens when you simply close the lid (when it's set to just turn off the screen in such case) or switch to tty by ctrl-alt-f1 and back by ctrl-alt-f7 - the brightness is reset. a funny thing happens when you do it quickly - you can see the brightness applet showing the brightness dimmed, while the screen is at full brightness. steps to reproduce: 1. turn down the brightness using the function keys (or otherwise, i guess). all the way or only a bit, it doesn't seem to matter. 2. either: a) restart computer b) go to 'switch user' menu, and log back in c) suspend and unsuspend d) close the lid (making sure it isn't set to hibernate or suspend) and open it again e) switch to terminal mode using ctrl-alt-f1, then back to x using ctrl-alt-f7 3. brightness goes to the max instead of staying the way it was. if it's of any importance: in b) and e) the brightness stays at the set level in the login screen (b) ) or terminal (e) ).
