Package: gnome-power-manager Version: 3.2.1-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
GNOME3.2 dims the display brightness unconditionally after ten seconds while on battery power. This makes it extremely annoying to use a notbeook on battery power for less interactive tasks like reading, waiting for BTS to return a list of bugs ;-), etc. In System Settings -> Screen, I have "Reduce brightness" set to 10 minutes. I have found that SIGSTOP'ing gnome-settings-daemon stops the dimming. After SIGCONT'ing it, the screen is immediately dimmed (and then undimmed right away because of activity, so it just flickers slightly) and then starts auto-dimming again. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-power-manager depends on: ii consolekit 0.4.5-1 ii dbus-x11 1.4.16-1 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.7.5-3 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.2.2-1 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.30.2-4 ii libgtk-3-0 3.2.2-2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.29.4-2 ii libupower-glib1 0.9.14-3 ii notification-daemon 0.7.3-1 ii upower 0.9.14-3 gnome-power-manager recommends no packages.
