Description of problem: Any time the screen goes blank due to no use or a suspend, upon reawakening, it is max bright regardless of what it was previously. On my Asus ROG laptop, Fn F5 lowers screen brightness by 1 notch per combined key press out of a possible 5. If I have it turned all the way down and the screen blanks due to no use or a programmed suspend, after a resume, just one Fn F5 will put it back to min brightness, skipping all the possible intermediate steps. The system knows where it should be, but when the box reawakens, the indicator for brightness isn't being considered. On a resume the brightness slider can be at min but brightness is at max. This has been going on since F19, but I never bothered to report it until now. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Set brightness to minimum Wait till screen blanks for any reason Resume to see it's full brightness. Touch the slider or a function key and it immediately goes to min brightness.

I'm reopening this bug as it's happening on F24. This has been going on since F19. There's a new wrinkle too. Now the backlight for the keyboard goes out on a resume. I have to reset the backlight manually.
You can trigger this manually just by locking and unlocking the screen in Gnome.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
