Title: Brightness adjustment
Post by: occirf001 on November 14, 2016, 06:25:09 AM
Hi to everybody. I tested LL yesterday with USB stick to see if my hardware is detected properly. Everything seems to work fine except brightness control - no matter what value I chose it stayed the same level (80% or so). Now, before I format my HDD and remove Windows 8.1 I want to ask if this issue is easy to solve? I was able to type xrandr in terminal and change brightness manually, but I do not want to do so every time. I am going to install LL on my laptop with IntelHD 4000 graphics. Laptop is connected to external monitor via docking station.
