Package: pommed Version: 1.26~dfsg-1 Severity: normal
Hello, I noticed that for a couple of months the brightness control via Fn+F1 F2 keys behaves quite strangely. When changing the brightness with those shortcuts, the brightness gauge appears on the screen and seems to progress smoothly from left to right, but the actual brightness is not consistent with the gauge. For example, if I have the brightness set on max and I graduately decrease the brightness with the Fn+F1 key, then I sometimes end up with a totally black screen and the gauge being at one third or one half of the max brightness instead of being to zero (sometimes the brightness even increases instead of increasing). I noticed this might be related to the speed at which I repeatedly press the F1/F2 keys, with the worst results obtained when leaving the Fn+F1 key pressed. By contrast, if I press the F1/F2 every half second, the brightness behaviour seems to be reasonnably satisfying, but then it takes quite a long time to set the brightness. Please feel free to ask for more details. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages pommed depends on: ii eject 2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-6 ejects CDs and operates CD-Changer ii libasound2 1.0.20-2 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-7 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libc6 2.9-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libconfuse0 2.6-2 Library for parsing configuration ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.14-3 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libpci3 1:3.1.2-5 Linux PCI Utilities (shared librar Versions of packages pommed recommends: ii dbus 1.2.14-3 simple interprocess messaging syst pommed suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
