Well, in http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8612908&postcount=828 suggest that: "adding nolapic allows to use dell smbios for changing backlight (brightness) in grub."
Although I have not used gnome-power-manager brightness feature, I believe it is not a bug. If I read: http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-power-manager/stable/applets-general.html.en I understand this is a temporary brightness level. So, I'll mark this bug as invalid. Please feel free to reopen if you think I misunderstood. ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Gnome power manager ignores screen settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/503577 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
