[Bug 600368] Re: macbook brightness causes login difficulty

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  When I leave my MacBook with the brightness turned to the lowest setting
  (i.e. the monitor is virtually turned off and nothing is visible) and
  the screensaver starts, thus locking the desktop, it is almost
  impossible to log back in, because all I can see is a faint desktop in
  the background, and the brightness control keys don't work in this mode.
  
  Once logged in, the brightness keys work once again.
