Also affected on : Inspiron 9400
Problems :
The "pop-up" notification stays forever on top of all windows till ctrl-alt-FX
trick
The gnome interface is partly locked while the notification stays up : by this
i mean
- most mouse interaction with the gnome panels is blocked (no starting
paplication through buttons, highlight of menus but no display or acess to menu
context)
- keyboard is mainly locked : ctrl-alt-FX still works, but only reset the
display instead of going to the selected terminal
Whereas following functions work
- The brightness setting through Fn+Up or Fn+Down works (brightness setup +
progress bar displaying actual state)
- the mouse is free
- mouse interaction with desktop icons OK
- mouse interaction with already launched applications is OK
problem may be linked to gnome-power-manager as the brightness setting
is part of it --> bug linked
data on my system :
Linux 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 21:57:00 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
gnome-power-manager version : 2.24.0-0ubuntu8.1
** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: None => gnome-power-manager
Status: New => Confirmed
