Public bug reported: On Laptop system there are two ways to change monitor brightness.
The first is with the gnome control center -> adjusting the brightness bar. The second way is to use keybord shortcuts for the monitor brightness. -> In this case unity shows a wiget on the desktop with a bar for brightness. Unfortunally the bar status of both ways are not synchronized. For illustrating please look at the attached screenshot. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Raring on a laptop system 2.Use the system center option to adjust the monitor brightness. 3.Use (if available) keybord shortcuts to adjust the monitor brightness. 4.See that both brighness bar differ. Additional: On the system I use brightness is not really adjustable(kernelbug), but anyway the both bars should not differ in anyway.
