Title:
  LCD screen brightness is not adapted on AC/Battery state change

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Fn-left and Fn-right control the brightness correctly (with a nice indicator popup)
  The brightness slider in gnome-power-manager has no effect (It does seem to change the value in /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/DD02/brightness)
  xbacklight -set 50 does not work.
  setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=FF to 
  setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=00 controls the brightness over the entire range.
  I tried acpi_backlight=vendor as boot option but that does not make any difference (this used to be a workaround for 10.04)
