Bug 445529

brightness

SUMMARY
Brightness too low when using keyboard keys to decrease brightness to 0 percentage, the display appears as if is switched off. But when I use flashlight on display I can see display contents with very low brightness.
If I decrease the brightness to 0 percentage using slider in system tray then I can see the contents of display which is also very low brightness, but visible without flashlight.
When I checked the file "/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" while decreasing the brightness to 0 percentage, it's value is 1 when using system tray slider & it's value is 0 when using keyboard keys. Please see the attached video.

The problem is clear when using Dim screen after 5 minutes & switch off after 10 minutes, after 5 minutes the screen does not appear as dimmed but it appears as if it is switched off, but visible when using external lightning like flashlight on the screen.
