Adding lightdm because I've discovered another issue: 1)boot Ubuntu 2)leave pc idle without logging in 3)after 10 minutes (as I've set in screen settings) the screen goes standby 4)I cannot restore backlight even using keyboard shortcut (I think because I'm not logged in) 5)I've only one user so the focus is on password field, so I can enter the password although the screen is off 6)As soon the system enter Gnome session I can restore backlight using keyboard shortcut
Is a strange problem...maybe it affects more modules (ligthdm, gnome- power-manager, graphic card driver??...), but I cannot reproduce it on other laptops, does anyone have a tip on how to isolate this bug to help resolving it?

It is the same behaviour than in this old bug #199522. After additional testing I've noticed that the problem is independent from "dim on idle" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/844241/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
