2014-01-19 13:38:28 Norbert description I have tested many distros - Arch, OpenSuSe 13.1, Fedora 20, ALT Linux p7, Sabayon, Magiea 4. Many of them are based on systemd. It does not matter what init system they use, but all of them have very usefull script (or binary program, I don't know) for saving and restoring backlight level on laptop. In these distros there is a script for save and restore backlight levels for two video-cards (acpi_video0 and acpi_video1). I have a draft version, which works normally on my VAIO F13Z1R laptop. It is in attachment. You can use it unmodified or modify it for compatibility with upstart or something. I made symlinks for it: ln -s /etc/init.d/backlight /etc/rc0.d/S25backlight ln -s /etc/init.d/backlight /etc/rcS.d/S25backlight ln -s /etc/init.d/backlight /etc/rc6.d/S25backlight For details you can read my comment on askubuntu (http://askubuntu.com/a/227553/66509). I think that having a script for saving and restoring backlight level is very usefull for laptop Ubuntu users. So, please, add such init script to default Ubuntu installation.

Go to 1 (another cold boot with reseted backlight level). ========================================= According to the list of duplicates and bug heat this bug/feature request is very important. As you know laptop market share is gigantic (see for example http://www.statista.com/statistics/276772/ultrabook-share-of-global-notebook-market-since-2011/ for stats). Also Ubuntu and Debian market share are increasing. So I can't believe why this usability fault exists in Ubuntu (and Debian) for years. It seems that guys from `systemd` understand the problem correctly (sooner or later - on 14 Aug 2013, see https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commits/56f64d95763a799ba4475daf44d8e9f72a1bd474/src/backlight/backlight.c ), but `upstart` and `sysvinit` developers not. As you can remember I tried to fix the problem by myself (see my comment on askubuntu http://askubuntu.com/questions/151651/brightness-is-reset-to-maximum-on-every-restart/227553#227553) - I created first version of an init script for saving and restoring backlight level (on 10 Dec 2012 - two years ago). It had one disadvantage - it operates only when laptop has one graphical adaptor and its name was hardcoded to the script (*acpi_video0* in my case). So today I present new version of a script - it can save and restore backlight levels of all graphical, adaptors, which are found in `/sys/class/backlight/*`. The init script with symlink are packed to archive (see attachment to comment #18 - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1270579/+attachment/4288756/+files/upstart_brightness.tar.gz ). The script is tested on Ubuntu Precise 12.04.5 and Ubuntu Trusty 14.04.1. Please note: if you have installed its previous version (see comment #15) - you can remove its files with commands: sudo rm /etc/rc?.d/?25backlight /etc/init.d/brightness then extract new version with commands: sudo tar -zxvf upstart_brightness.tar.gz -C / I hope my script will help somebody.

It does not matter what init system they use, but all of them have very usefull script (or binary program, I don't know) for saving and restoring backlight level on laptop. In these distros there is a script for save and restore backlight levels for two video-cards (acpi_video0 and acpi_video1). During system boot it is indicated as follows: " [ OK ] Started Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of acpi_video1. [ OK ] Started Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of acpi_video0.
