Hello,
How can I manage the brightness of my laptop ?
xbacklight -get (or -set)
does not work.
A gui interface would be helpful.
===>
using centos here, so this may not help. then again, if you are using
kde, it might.
on my laptop, there is a battery state indicator. when i left click it,
a drop down 'power management' window contains a screen brightness
control.
this icon is enabled in 'panel bar' via;
right click panel bar > panel options > add widgets
a window appears with 'battery monitor' icon. click to high light,
click 'star', click 'add widget' at bottom of window.
*also*, do not know if this is related, via;
system settings > advanced > power management >
edit profiles > [any of the profiles] > screen
below 'screen' is level slide bar, below it;
[ ] enable display power management
this i selected, may or may not be related to 'panel bar'.
