[Bug 915600] [NEW] Changing brightness request root (super user) permission

2012-01-12 Thread Guillermo Gonzalez
Public bug reported:

After today upgrade, any time the brightness change, by manual action or
by the power settings to dim the screen on battery I get a popup to
authorize gsd-backlight-helper  to run as superuser, looking at the ps
output I see:

pkexec /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --set-
brightness 15


Let me know if there is any extra info I can provide.
