[Bug 657949] [NEW] Screen brightness on MacBookPro7, 1 goes below 100% immediately after gdm login

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

What happens in order:
1. The computer is booted (MacBookPro 7,1).
2. When arriving to the gdm login, I can notice the brightness is at its maximum. Trying to lower the brightness doesn't do anything (but it shows the notification, so it's not a hotkey issue).
3. Immediately after typing my password, the brightness goes brutally down to ~40% (just a guess). When trying to change it back to 100% (either with the hotkeys or the brightness applet), I find that the "new" 100% is lower than the "previous" 100%. That means I can't change it back to 100%.

Please tell me if you need more information.
