lshw output
Umm, could that be the screen brightness indicator that errorneously appears on 4.x series [1] when, after having been idle, the screen dims?

In fact now that i think about it this bug has been around since the days i used to have Ubuntu installed ... how about 3 yrs ago!

That has been fixed in Plasma 5. Said popup now only ever appears when you manually change the brightness, never when the system does it automatically. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 325643 *** |
