[Bug 1364453] Re: Brightness setting does not persist across reboots

 

This isn't a deal-breaker, but consider the future case of a Touch split
greeter (or the desktop case where it's a current reality).  What should
the starting device brightness be on boot?

It seems like you are intending to store this value per-user inside the
user session's gsettings database, which may not be accessible by boot
time (in the split greeter cases -- encrypted home directories and all
that).  Even storing in AccountsService would feel weird, since this is
kind of a device-wide setting, right?

  When altering the brightness setting, it is always reset to the
  default value after a reboot. It is expected that changing the setting
  should persist across reboots.
