Bug#648499: gnome sets screen luminosity to the maximum

[Marc Glisse]

Package: gnome
Version: 1:3.0+3
Severity: normal

Hello,

on my laptop, since upgrading to gnome3, the luminosity is automatically
set to the maximum. I can easily move it back down (Fn+arrow), but it
will be set to the maximum again next login (or reboot). Before the
upgrade it used to remember that I like a low luminosity, so this is a
regression.
