Please describe the problem:
When I boot my system, the screen is on full brightness. But once the screensaver kicks in and I recover my session then the screen is no longer on full brightness, but usually one level below max. Not sure if this is intended but I think it's not natural if the brightness of your screen is different from before after recovering from a screensaver.

My system is Ubuntu 8.10 and graphic card is Intel GMA X3000.

Steps to reproduce:
1. have maximum brightness and wait till screensaver kicks in
2. recover from screensaver
3. brightness is less than before


Actual results:
brightness is less than maximum

Expected results:
That brightness is max because it was max before the screensaver session

Does this happen every time?
yes
