Bug Description

With no AC-adapter connected, I let my computer go into idle and turn of the screen aafter a few minutes. When I then go back to work the screen turns on, but the light is completely off. I then need to press one of the brightness buttons to get it to light up again.

After the idle and the screen turns on, I can actually see the desktop, but as I was saying, no light.
