Bug Description
Hardy, pre-beta, up to date.
Dell Inspiron 640m https:/
Steps to reproduce behavior:
1. Switch to battery power (brightness of the display reduces to the level of approx 1/3)
2. Adjust brightness as desired (lets say 1/2)
3. Switch to AC (brightness -> 100)
4. Switch to battery. It looks like the brightness drops to the same value as in 1.
Another sequence:
1. 2. as above.
3. Wait till monitor dims out.
4. Do something to wake up the system. Brightness again adjusted to some strange level (As in 1.).
Expected behavior: Once set for particular mode (AC power or Battery) brightness level should remain consistently on the same level upon mode switch.
Could you please retest with gpm 2.22, this behavior has been changed in
newer packages.
