Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal
After KDE is started, if I right-click on the guidance-p-m applet I can
suspend, change CPU policy, etc. However, if I left-click on the applet
to bring up the main screen, the applet freezes and consumes 100% of my
CPU power. I think it is related to the screen brightness setting, for
all that area appears sort of empty (please see screenshot). Also,
unplugging the laptop from the main power does not have an effect on
screen brightness.
Now, this happens again if I kill the applet and start it again. But if
I restart HAL, the applet works perfectly, screen brightness dims fine
when unplugging or moving the sliders, etc.
Bug #140966 is somehow related to this one.
Up to date Kubuntu Gutsy on a Sony VAIO VGN-FS285M.
