Bug Description

On the previous versions the default screen brightness was perfect for me but on 11.10 the default brightness is killing my eye. I have changed the brightness level like 70% but after restarting and every login/logout it returns to default 100%.

How do I make remember my brightness setting?

I was asking a question on here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/174489 and someone suggested me to report this as a bug.

I have the opposite problem. When the laptop is restarted the brightness of the screen reverts to the lowest possible level.
