Description Martin Tlustos 2023-07-24 05:46:16 UTC 
SUMMARY

When working normally on my acer laptop, the display brightness is set to minimum from time to time randomly (probably more often when I switch to another window, but not always). I can reset it back to what I want after then, but it's annoying. Intervals can be an hour, five hours, half an hour, whatever.
It happens when on ac power, so it shouldn't have to do anything with battery levels.

When that happens, does the slider in the battery applet of the system tray change as well and correctly reports the screen brightness as being on minimum?
Comment 2 Martin Tlustos 2023-08-15 06:12:32 UTC 
I'll check the next time it occurs.
Comment 3 Martin Tlustos 2023-09-19 15:08:44 UTC 
It hasn't happened now for a while, maybe it got fixed somewhere.
Comment 4 Natalie Clarius 2023-09-19 15:25:32 UTC 
Ok, that's good to hear. Feel free to reopen if the issue occurs again.
