[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#755215: [xfce4-power-manager] Setting backlight with keyboard does not work correctly

[marek.budyn at gmail.com (Marek Budyn)]

Package: xfce4-power-manager
Version: 1.2.0-4
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Setting screen brightness with keys shows multiple levels of screen 
brightness (progress bar indicates 10 levels),
while only 2 brightnesses levels are recognizable.

Manually setting brightness level with
pkexec xfpm-power-backlight-helper --set-brightness [level]
allows precise control over brightness level (multiple values work here)

Manually setting brightness level with xbacklight works as well.
