I did an upgrade to app-laptop/pbbuttonsd-0.7.9 (~ppc), to see if my suspend problem is concerned with that.

Now pbbuttonsd sets default display brightness to lowest after start eventhough I'm using my old pbbuttonsd.conf which has
Code:
LCD_Brightness = 7

From a recent pbbuttonsd changelog:
Code:
2006-09-28  0.7.8-4
   * ATTENTION: The client interface has changed:
     The following tags use values in percent now instead of the
     device dependent physical value:
          TAG_LCDBRIGHTNESS
          TAG_KBDBRIGHTNESS
          TAG_KBDONBRIGHTNESS
     The following tags are deprecated and shouldn't be used any
     longer:
          TAG_LCDBRIGHTNESSMAX
          TAG_KBDBRIGHTNESSMAX
     Clients have to be adapted to this changes. It is recommended
     to use new versions of GTKPbbuttons and PowerPrefs with this
     release.


;)

Thanks for these details, haven't seen that. But anyway according that changelog my used tags from the previous version are not deprecated:
Code:
LCD_Brightness        = 7

No, it's not depreciated, that wasn't the important part :p. You need to read the other part of that where it says that now those values are given as a percentage instead of a value out of 15 (16?). So your 7 indicates that you want the initial brightness at 7%, which would explain why it's dim on startup. Set it to 100 for full brightness at boot.

Thanks, now it's clear. I'll review my whole config.

Also timeouts changed to 1/100s while the default .conf still has 1/10 in the comment.
