[Bug 1891032] Re: Brightness key freeze screen
These 3 cause screen freeze 1. sudo acpidbg -b "e EV5 1 0" ("2 0" for brightness down) 2. sudo acpidbg -b "e \_SB.PCI0.GFX0.BRT6 1 0" ("2 0" for brightness down) 3. sudo acpidbg -b "notify \_SB.PCI0.GFX0.LCD 0x86" (0x86 for brightness down) And these 2 don't work (tee: /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness: Invalid argument) 4. echo 3 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness 5. echo 6 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness I tried 4 and 5 with root (sudo su) and without the "sudo" and returned the same error... I will read this wiki about backlight, thank you -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1891032 Title: Brightness key freeze screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1891032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1891032] Re: Brightness key freeze screen
I can control the brightness (with step up or down) using these commands: gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power --object-path /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/Power --method org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power.Screen.StepUp gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power --object-path /org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/Power --method org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Power.Screen.StepDown I was thinking of a workaround that disables the current Fn key program and I create a script that triggers these commands when I press Fn key but I don't know how to disable the current trigger -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1891032 Title: Brightness key freeze screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1891032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
