That needs superuser privileges. Please try

  echo 4 | sudo tee /proc/acpi/video/IGD/DOS

If that is too magical for you, you can also do

  $ sudo -i
  # echo 4 > /proc/acpi/video/IGD/DOS

> and...@msiu:~$ sudo echo 4 > /proc/acpi/video/IGD/DOS

This doesn't work. This only runs "echo" as root (which is
unnecessary), the ">" (output redirection) is processed by the shell
(bash) which doesn't run as root.
