Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal
I've looked at all the various thinkpad-brightness-related bugs on
launchpad, but this seems to be one that hasn't been reported yet. On my
Thinkpad T41 (model 2668-F5G), when I press the 'brightness up'
(Fn+Home) key, the screen brightness goes up by one step as it should,
but gnome-power manager doesn't recognize the keypress - the popup
display doesn't appear, and the slider in the brightness applet doesn't
go up. On the other hand, when I press the 'brightness down' (Fn+End)
key, the screen brightness goes all the way down to the minimum
brightness - but the popup display does appear and the brightness
applet's slider does go down to 0. This was all with GNOME; in KDE,
there isn't the brightness-dropping-to-zero problem, but the 'brightness
up' keypress still doesn't get recognized.
I've filed this under hal, but there's probably a gnome-power-manager
aspect too.
