[Bug 884041] Re: Screen brightness not adjusted when switching from AC to battery

2012-11-09 Thread Danny Wood
What is irritating about this is the backlight on laptops is usually the
highest power item.

So on battery I want it to always be low power to maximise the battery
life, I don't want it to continuously go bright when I touch my laptop
as this consumes excess battery.

As I can't have that my display is always dim at the moment, so even on
AC I am having a dim display and not utilising the screens ability.

It makes sense to have two power modes, on battery, and on AC. It makes
absolutely no sense to use virtually the same settings on both. The
GNOME guys are consistently going to far to reduce configuration.

[Bug 884041] Re: Screen brightness not adjusted when switching from AC to battery

2011-11-12 Thread Danny Wood
This is a rather annoying issue.

Looking through all the power manager settings it seems they have
removed the brightness_battery and brightness_ac settings that used to
achieve this. Hopefully it will be back in 12.04

Until then a possible solution is to write a script that sets the back-
light brightness on ac -> battery and back.

** Package changed: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) => gnome-power-
manager (Ubuntu)

@ Konstantinos Natsakis

The package in your PPA fixes it on my machine for both wine and VLC which were 
the only apps I saw this in.
Thanks!
