Confirming the issue for gnome-power-manager: it sets brightness level to 100 as soon as it starts. There is still something else that does the same while ubuntu is loading but still I don't know which package.
pippo@tux:~$ killall gnome-power-manager pippo@tux:~$ cat /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness levels: 20 28 36 44 52 60 68 76 84 93 100 current: 20 pippo@tux:~$ gnome-power-manager --verbose --no-daemon --immediate-exit > gpm.log pippo@tux:~$ cat /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness levels: 20 28 36 44 52 60 68 76 84 93 100 current: 100
