Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
The slider brightness Applet has value (%) inverted after the last update. When moves slider to up (plus) the screen brightness goes down. When moves slider to down (minus) the screen brightness goes up. I'm using version is 2.24.0-0ubuntu 8.1. |

SRU Justification
Justification: ACPI brightness handling inverted or not functioning for several systems. acpi fixes committed to the proposed kernels expanded use of ACPI calls to handle brightness. This however exposes a number of systems which have broken ACPI brightness handling
Impact: a number of laptops reported either inverted brightness handling or totally non-functional brightness control
Fix Description: the fix adds an ACPI brightness validator which suppresses use of ACPI calls which are deemed broken.
Patch: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-intrepid.git;a=commit;h=096be4a4f49d781c0e7e8a54f9c0ff086570236a
Risks: as we are supressing ACPI brightness support we may suppress it where it is required
TEST CASE: see bug report |

Unless there should actually be a separate bug, it seems that the most recent comments indicate that brightness control is broken on some machines, regressing from -9.
I can also confirm that on my Thinkpad X300. |
