You have been subscribed to a public bug: When I press Fn+Home on my Lenovo ThinkPad T61, I expect the brightness to go up a step, and I expect the OSD to show that change.
What actually happens, is that the brightness goes up a step, the OSD pops up, and then there's a pause of exactly 1 second, after which the brightness goes up another step and the OSD hides. If I hit Fn-Home a few times, there's a 1 second pause between each step, which makes it rather irritating when you want to go up from 50% to 100% or back. Fn- End, which reduces the brightness, has the same delay. This is a regression since Hardy, where the volume keys worked fine with no pauses. It could be a duplicate of #286102, except that I don't see the OSD reverting to a previous brightness level, and I haven't seen this bug in Hardy.

(Fn-End sends XF86MonBrightnessDown). /var/log/acpid doesn't show any ACPI events being sent when I press those keys. ** Affects: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [intrepid] screen brightness keys act very slowly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
