[Bug 876711] Re: Screen brightness resets to minimized when screen turns off
Bobik-s, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

@Bobik-s and others experiencing this problem- For reference, the bug noted in the bug report title is actually a duplicate of bug 872652 (and glad to hear that 3.0.0-15 fixes it for you, Bobik-s). I have prepared a PPA test kernel for Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric) including a patch which might address the remaining "min/max on every step" problem: https://launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/+archive/inverted-backlight Feedback to this bug report will be appreciated. ** Package changed: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876711 Title: Screen brightness resets to minimized when screen turns off To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/876711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 876711] Re: Screen brightness resets to minimized when screen turns off
After updating the system to the new kernel 3.0.0.15-generic the problem was partially resolved. Now the system remebers your choice of screen brightness level. You don't have to re-adjust it every time you waku up the system. But still screen adjustment control works wierdly - if you repeatedely goes from min to max step by step the real level of brightness goes min-max with every button press. So it's possible to fix it but in an unlogical way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876711 Title: Screen brightness resets to minimized when screen turns off To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/876711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, I can confirm that this is not restricted to gnome. I'm running Kubuntu Oneric on a Dell D630 and have the exact same problem (screen brightness is minimum after display is switched on again). This is the case in KDE and KDM. I also installed ubuntu-desktop and observed the same behavior with unity. Also everything was fine on Natty.

It's not merely gnome related. I've ran away from gnome3 and both kubuntu and xubuntu 11.10 suffer from this bug on my dell D630.

I have the same problem on a Dell D830, Intel graphics, on Oneiric. The brightness when returning from screensaver is at minimum (xbrightness shows level 0), brightness keys work and so does xbrightness -set 100. Brightness control worked fine for me on Natty. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876711 Title: Screen brightness resets to minimized when screen turns off To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/876711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The X driver doesn't control brightness. Might be an issue in the userspace daemon.
