This *is* a bug. It is bad for UX. Maybe not in Xorg, but it is a bug. As stated in the LKML, the behavior among drivers varies. Some backends *do* turn off backlight completely. That means, there is something visible on screen if you shine a bright light on the LCD (so the LCD is still working), but because the backlight is off the screen is practically unusable (even in a very dark room). This means your statement: > 0 brightness == min brightness, not off Is not always true. Not on my system, and not on the system of many other people. With that out of the way, could you please tell me where I should go to get this bug fixed, if it's not Xorg?</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
