I have that file, but setting that value to 10 is the same as going to
Screen GUI and scrolling the brightness to the maximum.
Value doesn't get fixed after restart. Maybe GNOME 3.x is overwriting
this setting.
I think that in the past this was the file I was struggling with. :-)
Any other tip?
What program do you refer to as the Screen GUI and where is it found?
