I'm puzzled about this still. I've found nothing in the docs about changing the brightness of the backlight, is it actually possible?
I ask as it's very useful to turn it down to save battery, but then back up when you need to use it in brightish light. also, is there a way to rotate the screen without changing xorg.conf? Thanks Cybernet |

Actually the wsconsctl display.brightness increment values give 20% on 1 step values...
i.e. at 60% wsconsctl display.brightness+=1 goes to 80% 40% wsconsctl display.brightness-=1 goes to 20% These are the values you need to keybind btw: I have only tried this with xfce4 using the Window Manager command mapping and had to use a Ctrl+3, Ctrl+4 rather than Fn+3, Fn+4 which the Window Manager ignored.. possibly due to the fact that this is a Chording Key for a mouse click? Not sure. |
