I have an external battery connected. I reduce the brightness to conserve power. Every so often the system spontaneously changes to full brightness.
What's going on here? Is the GNOME power settings demon overriding explicit user commands? If so, that is a bug. It should never countermand an explicit order from the user. For each of the distinct states it knows about, it should remember what brightness the user ast chose in that state. When it leaves a state, it should store the current brightness as the last brightness for that state. When it enters a state, it should set the brightness to the value stored for that state. This way, no user-specified brightness change will ever be countermanded. Instead, user-specified brightnesses will be swapped in and out. If you can't fix this yourselves, could you please report it upstream and watch to make sure it is fixed? _______________________________________________ gNewSense-dev mailing list gNewSense-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnewsense-dev
