Advice on bug report
Hi all,
I'm going to send a bug report on Sarge, but I can't determine which
package is causing the problem. The Debian BTS page suggests to ask
debian-user in such cases, so here I am.
The problem is, I have a laptop (Dell Latitude C640) that, when I'm
in my office, I connect to an external monitor through a docking
station. Even though I've set the "PanelOff" option in my X
configuration (video card is Radeon 7500 mobility), the panel's
backlight turns on when I log into Gnome.
I think that some program is doing that during the Gnome startup
process, but I don't know which. It seems to happen when the Gnome
splash screen is displaying "window manager", thus I suspect
metacity, but I'm not sure. There might be some delay between the
splash screen and the actual programs running. So it might also be
gnome-session, or nautilus, or don't know what.
Any advice?
Thank you
Gerardo
