Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

When I resume from suspend (while on AC power), the laptop display
brightness is set to it's lowest level, even when I had the brightness
turned all the way up before. Interestingly enough, this only seems to
happen on the first suspend after a reboot. Once I have turned up the
display brightness again using the function keys, the next
suspend/resume cycle will work normally (until the next reboot).
Finally, when I use the function keys to increase the brightness after a
suspend, I see that the brightness level in the notification bar
indicates that the brightness is set to the maximum. Only after repeated
adjustments with the function keys, the indicator 'resets' and reflects
the true display brightness level. I'm using the proprietary nvidia
display driver, but I've never had this problem before in Jaunty. Also,
in case it makes a difference, I've set my laptop to suspend on lid
closure since that's the way I generally suspend the laptop.
