This issue has appeared since I updated this morning, having noted that there were some changes to the Sputnik code. My version now is:

Linux [machine name] 3.2.0-38-generic #61+kamal13~DellXPS-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 19 23:04:43 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The issue is that the backlight controls work fine, with OSD, from boot, but as soon as suspend or hibernate, the OSD works but the value is not getting through to the hardware & the screen stays at max.

My laptop is an XPS 13 i7 with 256GB SSD & 8MB memory.

I suspect this is a kernel leapfrog issue, but honestly am not 100% sure. I've never had this setup quite perfect (bluetooth always turns on after suspend); but the brightness has been working ever since I added the Sputnik PPAs.

Keep up the good work, it's much appreciated. Let me know if you need any more info.
