(Get the code!)
I updated using Kamal Mostafa's patch. It appears to solve the problem on my HP Mini. That is, I have turned the "dim display when idle" option back on in the "Screen" options, and now the display does not get locked into a dark mode. However, I think this is working backwards: ten or so seconds after I stop typing, the display gets BRIGHTER (to max brightness, I would say), and as soon as I stop typing, it gets dimmer, going to the setting determined by the brightness-control keys!!!
This may have been true before, too, so I am not certain that it was introduced by this fix.
I can start a new bug if you like.
Thanks.
