Title:
  Max screen brightness differs depending on power status at boot

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  If I boot with the mains connected my screen brightness can be
  adjusted from very bright to dim, but perfectly usable.

  If I boot just on battery power, it varies from something similar to
  "dim but perfectly usable" as above to blank (backlight off)

  I think I've seen that the BIOS sets the screen brightness at startup
  differently when booting with and without mains, so might that be
  setting what Ubuntu thinks is maximum brightness.  For comparison,
  Win7 doesn't do this, the very bright setting is available both ways.
