Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
While on battery power, I'm observing that screen brightness misbehaves.
The machine is an ASUS 1000HA.
I manually push the brightness down all the way using Fn-F5. I am
reading a document and periodically scrolling or paging using either
keys or touchpad scroll feature. Sometimes when I provide an input (it
doesn't matter whether it's keyboard or touchpad) the brightness will go
up to full and I have to manually force the brightness all the way down
again.
If I've told the system I want the display fully dimmed, it should never
exceed that setting even when it sees I'm no longer idle.
I am using the default settings for the power manager.
