Package: libxrandr2 Version: 2:1.2.1-1 Severity: normal I do have a Sony laptop, and I have mapped the function keys controlling the brightness of the display to a script setting values in /sys/class/backlight/sony. This works fine both in the console and within X up to the point where xscreensaver kicks in and sets the display to DPMS standby, suspend or off mode. After reactivating the computer the screensaver sets the brightness of the display using the xrandr extension not to the value the display brightness had before, but to the value which is still in memory. To make a long story short, xrandr should check the actual brightness of the display before it is changed.
I am filing this bug against xrandr because the xbacklight tool shows the same behaviour, so I do not think that this is an xscreensaver problem. If I am wrong, please feel free to reassign the bug to another package.
