https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D257796 Bug ID: 257796 Summary: backlight(8) gets confused on power change Product: Base System Version: 13.0-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: mason@blisses.org I've been using backlight(8) to set my backlight brightness, and it generally works very well, but I just noticed that if I plug in or unplug my laptop power adapter it will go to 100% brightness. The command output will show 100% brightless, but it appears to remember the previous value, as if I go back to, say, 50% with "backlight 50" it presumably already thinks it's there and will do nothing. If I choose another value, whether higher or lower, it will correctly set that new value, after which backlight(8) will report that value. So: # backlight 50 -> unplug and see backlight brighten # backlight brightness: 100 # backlight 50 -> nothing happens # backlight brightness 100 # backlight 40 -> backlight goes to 40% # backlight=20 brightness: 40 # backlight 50 -> backlight goes to 50% this time # backlight brightness: 50 --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
