[Bug 833595] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGFPE in backlight_get_percentage()

 

I think Rodrigo was asking for someone to run those commands on real
hardware. If you run in a VM it is unlikely that a backlight will be
present - afaik VirtualBox/QEMU do not emulate a backlight. It would be
poor isolation if a guest VM going to LCD standby took down the host
LCD.
