[Bug 348651] [NEW] "Dim display when idle for more that x min" function in PowerDevil does not brighten screen correctly after it is dimmed.

[Michael Marley]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase

On Kubuntu Jaunty x64 running on my Dell  Vostro 1500 laptop, the "Dim
display when idle for more that x min" option in the PowerDevil
configuration options does not work right.  I have it set to dim the
display after 1min of inactivity.  It does properly dim the display, but
it does not brighten it correctly when I touch the touchpad or type of
the keyboard.  Instead it takes about 5-10 seconds (but a different
amount of time every time) to brighten the display again.  I have also
noticed that if I am watching a video while this is enabled, the display
will dim and brighten at random intervals (caused by CPU usage or disk
usage, I think)
