Brightness gets low after exiting Enlightenment

I am currently using Enlightenment on Arch, Everything worked great except a small bug that the screen gets dim when I logout Enlightenment.

I have tried both E18 and E19 from the testing repo. The issue is present in both of these releases.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot PC
2. Login using any Display Manager
3. Logout using Enlightenment

The screen gets dimmest. It seems that there is some hardcoded value of brightness which E18 reverts to upon exiting.

Yep, this is one of those "features" that many of us would consider a bug but really isn't.

I don't see this on E18, but I don't use a DM, so it just drops back to a text login with normal brightness when I exit. Have you tried it without a DM as well?

Re: Brightness gets low after exiting Enlightenment

well… interesting.
on 0.19.1, brightness does NOT change, if i exit via Enlightenment —> Exit,
but it DOES change if i exit via System — Log Out.
appears to be like a systemd-related issue.
