[Bug 1395404] [NEW] Screen brightness never listens

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

I can never get the screen brightness to obey me on ubuntu. It's to the
point where I'd move to Mint. The setting is simply a checkbox in the
settings, and when unchecked, apparently the screen still follows the
"90 seconds" until dimming the screen.

It should stay bright :/
