Comment 52 for bug 384304

working for me! as soon as i forced the "downgrade" in synaptic, my backlight dimmed and before re-upgrading it it said 'sure, cause you are on battery'.

i switched to the kde guidance manager (hoped that one would work), but now theyre next to each other: gnome works and the guidance is still believing we are on ac.

a lot of owrds to say: it works!!!

@mcz: thanks a lot, you brought me one step further from throwing my laptop uit a window (if the stupid alsa/pulse/oss 'one moment you have sounds but the next you dont and you really cant work wiothout music so you hate your life in the office' problems get soilved). keep the good work!
