Package: hal
Version: 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

When switching to battery, g-p-m is configured to decrease the
brightness level of my lcd.

Though I can see the brightness bar, the brightness itself does
not change.

I use the omnibook module (/proc/omnibook/lcd) to change the
brightness.

It used to work previously, not sure when exactly the problem
arose.

The support for omnibook was added in 2006:

Cheers,
Julien
