I just want to confirm that this bug still exists. I am up to date as of a few minutes ago.
(1) If I ever lower the brightness of the LCD screen using Fn+Down, the brightness will eventually (after what seems to be a random amount of time) revert to the value originally set in the brightness applet. (2) I also just noticed that if I lower or raise the brightness using Fn+Down or Fn+Up and close the laptop lid, the brightness will revert to whatever was originally set in the brightness applet upon reopening the lid. However, if I change the brightness directly through the brightness applet and close the lid, the brightness will remain at that new level when I reopen the laptop. It seems like the brightness applet "records" the brightness level so that it does not change later for any reason. Fn+Down and Fn+Up, however, seem to change the brightness temporarily, only to be reverted to the value last set with the brightness applet for one of the two reasons above. Steps to repeat issue 1: 1. Use the brightness applet to set the brightness to a given value. 2. Use Fn+Down (Fn+Up not tested, but I expect that would cause the issue also) to modify the brightness noticeably. 3. Continue using your computer. Expected result: The brightness will not change for any reason. Actual result: The brightness will eventually (randomly, it seems) revert to the value you set with the brightness applet in step 1. Steps to repeat issue 2: 1. Use the brightness applet to set the brightness to a given value. 2. Use Fn+Down or Fn+Up to modify the brightness noticeably. 3. Close the laptop lid. 4. Reopen the laptop lid. Expected result: Upon reopening the lid, the brightness will remain at the level you just set using Fn+Down or Fn+Up. Actual result: Upon reopening the lid, the brightness will revert to the value you set with the brightness applet in step 1.
