** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
  
- I discovered that is possible to lower the brightness on my laptop using
- the brightness down key, Fn+F7, until a point where the brightness is
- zero or off.  After which pressing the brightness up key, Fn+F8, does
- not increase the brightness of the screen back thereby rendering my
- session unusable.  I think the brightness level should stop before it
- turns off.

  WORKAROUND:
  It is possible to workaround this issue by switching to a different vty, 
Ctrl+Alt+F1, and then back to my desktop session by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7.  The 
brightness has then been restored to a normal level.
