Bug Description
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T61 with the Nvidia graphics card and Intel wifi. I am running 64-bit Feisty with the 2.6.22-7 kernel backported from Gutsy (necessary for the Intel wireless).
If I am running the laptop on AC power, and I un-plug it then plug it in again, for example to move to a different room, the little dialog box that shows the current brightness setting fails to go away after I plug the AC power back in.

This is one of the symptoms I have in bug 123548.
If you try to drop the brightness one step, does it go away? Open a terminal window and run:
tail -f /var/log/kern.log
