Hi List
I have new notebook Hewlett-Packard Compaq 615 VC289EA. I have installed
Debian testing on it.
The problem is that function keys don't work and I can't decrease
highlight of my screen.
Is there any method to software decrease level of screen highlight?
Thanks
Hi.
if you use KDE there is highlight changing on battery power settings.
Your safest bet is using the ACPI /proc interface:
# cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness
levels: 0 6 13 20 26 33 40 46 53 60 66 73 80 86 93 100
current: 46
# echo 100 > /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness
Chances are xbacklight won't support your LCD. It's hardly used these
days. Just write a simple up/down script and attach it to some
hotkey-action (via window manager cfg) or some extra/media HW button
(via ACPI scripts). You can choose any button(s) you have for it and
it's very easy.
