Seems other events have stopped being processed as well - e.g.
unplugging a/c and going to battery - laptop beeps - but screen no longer dims -
Again - I can dim screen by hand by doing something like this:
echo '11' > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
This has been flaky a while but usually worked at least some of the time - now its just not working period.
I wonder if udev responsible for this? Looks like I upgraded systemd at the end of last month to 189-4 ... seems unlikely it took me till last weekend to notice this .. but I can be slow at times :-)
kde had a bunch of updates sep 4 (4.9.0 to 4.9.1).. again a week or so back
If anyone has suggestions how to get these working again would be appreciated .. not fatal as I can do everything by hand but since things used to work be ncie to get them working again.

Any chance you may have a setting that could be changed in the KDE power management settings window to get this working again? -- mike c
