Title:
  thinkpad screen dims after unplugging external display, and won't re-
  brighten without leaving X

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I un-plug the external VGA cable from my Thinkpad X200s, the
  screen dims.  Hitting Fn-Home (the brightness-increase key) does
  nothing.  Suspending and resuming doesn't reset this, though a reboot
  will allow me to use the brightness controls again while in the POST
  and after.

  My current workaround is that every time I disconnect the monitor, I
  have to C-M-F1 to get to a virtual console, brighten the screen, and
  then M-left to get back to X.
