[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#676854: xfce4-power-manager: automatic brightness adjust broken

[Andres Cimmarusti]

I was able to start xfpm with the debug and no-daemon option in a
console and got the logged messages (attached).

I'm afraid the log is not very helpful (AFAIK). I let the computer be
idle and on battery for the specified time of 20 seconds and the
brightness didn't change.
