            Bug ID: 358588
           Summary: backlight not restored properly, after it was reduced
                    on inactivity
           Product: Powerdevil
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: johannes.hirte at datenkhaos.de

After some time of inactivity, the backlight of my laptop is reduced as
configured. But it's not restored, when resuming work on the machine. I can
adjust the backlight by hand, either Fn-Keys or the "battery and brightness"
systray. As a result, I get more and more backlighthelper processes. After one
day, I have more than 100 backlighthelper processes on my system:

ps -e|grep backlighthelper|wc -l
112

I'm running Gentoo with KF5/Plasma packages from git.

Reproducible: Always
