I have an ASUS UL30A laptop with IntelĀ® GMA X4500MHD graphics card and I have had this problem ever since I started using Ubuntu (10.04). Now I run 12.04 and the problem persists. I have tried everything but nothing works except going to "Brightness and Lock", decreasing "Brightness" to the minimum and then increasing it again. I have to do this everytime I log in or after unlocking the screen.
By the way I don't have "Dim screen to save power" checked, "Turn screen off when inactive for" is set to "Never" and "Lock" is "OFF" but never the less the screen dims and locks. So neither of the options on the "Brightness and Lock" works for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/875195 Title: Screen is very dim after turning on Laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/875195/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
