** Description changed: - f.lux also has no effect. - also when i try to do - sudo echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness - then it says 'bash: brightness: permission denied'. + If I go to System Settings - Brightness and Lock then I can find a + Brightness slider input. But when I move the slider to a different + position, the brightness of the screens does not change. + + Earlier I said f.lux does not work either. I have found that f.lux does + not install correctly and should not be expected to work apparently. + People say to get resdshift instead. I get messages from python about + unset + + The software called redshift is able to make the screens a different + color, so that is good. + + sudo echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness Trusty Tahr 14.04 updated to current + + This status is invalid so I should not be editing it, I should be + editing the duplicate.
