Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 3.0.1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

On a laptop Dell Latitude D630 running Debian Testing and Gnome Shell where
gnome-screensaver automatically lock the screen after a certain predetermined
time, the LCD brightness is at minimal. This makes it extremely difficult to
see where someone should type their password to unlock the session.
Additionally, brightness is not restored after unlocking the session either.
After unlock, I need to choose Fn+Up Arrow to restore the LCD brightness. If I
choose Fn+Left Arrow, I see the brightness symbol and a prohibited symbol, too.
