In the (hal based) 0.8 branch, when on a platform which handles the brightness itself (wether in the EC or in the kernel), xfpm was only showing the notification. It did the brightness change itself only in case nothing else could do that. In 1.0, this is not the case anymore. In my case, (a Dell latitude E4300 and I guess a ThinkPad T61 which both have an Intel GMA965 video card) the brightness is handled by the ACPI video driver, directly with the card. There's no need for a userland application to set it itself. But xfpm still tries (and suceeds) to do it, so each time I press the brightness up key, the brightness level is upped twice. Same goes for brightness down. I'm not too sure how you did manage to detect if the brightness was already handled in xfpm 0.8, maybe it was hal providing the information, but it'd be nice to have that back.

I think gnome-power-manager has the same problem, they will no add it to upower, since they are refusing to add any code related to brightness to upower, but what is funny is that recent versions of upower has KbdBacklight interface, i suggest that you (distributions) start putting pressure on upower developers so they can re-add brightness interface, when i was pushing for this i was the only one complaining...

I have an ugly patch (see earlier comment) somewhere buried in a backup amongst a couple of terabytes of other stuff. I will post it here in a few days, digging it up isn't as simple as typing it in the windows search box, and to be honest I have other things higher on my list of priorities.

Hi, I noticed this issue from bug 959106, thank Alex Wolfson. We know this issue and this is not only a issue in userpsace but in kernel, so it's not easy to fix it soon. We need the code ready in userspace(such as gnome-settings-daemon in gnome) and then we will fix the code in kernel.

Re: [Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys
On Ubuntu just kill power manager and it should change only by one
steps, but some devices do not support changing brightness without gpm.
Easiest fix is just to add some checking to gpm if kernel already
changed brightness or not. Gnome guys seem not keen in fixing it.

[Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys
That's the first thing I did. Anyways I think I fixed the issue now but its a very ugly quick-fix. I commented out the calls to change inc/decrement the brightness values when the keys are pressed. I also had to always distrust the cached brightness value (like I said, ugly) to get the OSD to follow the changes in brightness that the kernel makes. As for the OSD still showing with no g-p-m, that was a strange issue, it hasn't happened again. My mangling of the cache trust system seems to have caused no serious bugs, but I've noticed only a couple little things that may or may not have already existed. None of the tiny bugs are as bad as the doubling up on the brightness control though so I can live with it until one of us makes a real patch or the Ubuntu team comes up with a better idea.

In an effort to track down the bug, I commented out all the code within the gpm_brightness_foreach_resource function and that still did not correct the issue.

[Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys
One further note: I have discovered a work-around, sort of. In my case, when I use Fn +F6 to reduce the brightness to the minimum (for me, level 6 initially) if I then use Fn +F7 to increase brightness BY JUST ONE INCREMENT to 7, then I can return to Fn + F6 and drop down to 4. If I continue this process of 'three steps down, one step up' I CAN EVENTUALLY REACH 1!! This looks like some sort of problem initializing a variable, one that gets set when brightness is moved up, and decremented when brightness goes down. Each time the brightness is moved up, it goes to a value like 3, and can be reduced three times?

For Jaunty things are a bit in the moving state. In your case it currently will likely do the right thing, since the default there is either vendor or video. However, when we had the same in Intrepid it fixed this case but broke several others, so we reverted to have vendor _and_ video as the default for the time being. But the chances are not too bad that your case is good in Jaunty since this is the direction that upstream is currently taking. -- brightness changes twice when using hotkeys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It seems we cannot properly fix this without causing regressions for other people. However, with the current -proposed kernel, you can now install local modalias rules to fix your system. (See above). Thus setting back to verification-needed. ** Tags added: verification-needed ** Tags removed: verification-failed -- brightness changes twice when using hotkeys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys
We are trying to sort out how this can be fixed properly for Jaunty. As a first step in that I have pulled down the latest modifications to the ACPI brightness support and applied them to the latest Jaunty kernel. If anyone who has had issues, whether they are fixed or not in the Intrepid -proposed kernels, could test these kernels and report back here that would help us evaluate these upstream fixes.

It was fixed for awhile after installing proposed updates, but yesterday I installed proposed, I think 2.6.27.11-14, and the double changing is back, which is funny since the changelog specifically mentioned FIXING backlight quirks.

[Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys
@apw: per our discussion, I tried both separately blacklisting the video module and adding the brightness_enable=1 option to the thinkpad_acpi module. Blacklisting the video module had no effect; adjusting brightness was broken entirely and even worse, the brightness was set at the lowest setting. g-p-m locked up entirely when trying to adjust the screen brightness. Adding the brightness_enable=1 option to the thinkpad_acpi module options caused brightness settings to start working; g-p-m was able to adjust the brightness settings. Also, with that option, the directory /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/thinkpad_screen/ showed up, and writing values to the brightness file in that directory changed the display brightness. Writing values to /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness had no effect in any of the kernels I booted (with the video module blacklisted, that path did not exist). When the -10.20 kernel is booted, there's also a /sys/devices/virtual/backlight/acpi_video1/ directory; writing values to the brightness file in that directory also adjusted the screen's brightness. -- brightness changes twice when using hotkeys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 257827] Re: brightness changes twice when using hotkeys
@Andy Whitcroft, the -11 kernel broke brightness settings on my t61 as well, I reported it in bug 314119. I am running all of proposed but don't use the gnome-applet; setting it through gnome-power-manager did not work but does work with the -10.20 kernel. Manually echoing values into /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness also doesn't work, which didn't work in -10.20 either, but echoing values in /proc/acpi/video/VID1/LCD0/brightness (note VID1 vs VID) did work in -10.20 to change the screen's brightness, but the /proc/acpi/video/VID1/ path does not exist when the -11.22 kernel is rebooted, -- brightness changes twice when using hotkeys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/257827 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Jon Oberheide -- there is also a gnome brightness appplet update in -proposed which was supposed to fix brighness control on a number of machines.
