If I press the buttons or I move the slider, the OSD shows that brightness is changing while actually it's not. I expect that brightness is being regulated by my actions. systemd-backlight@.service simply stores the current backlight value on > shutdown and restores it on boot. > It reads from /sys/class/backlight/*/brightness and writes accordingly. > If that somehow confuses the hardware, this smells like a driver/kernel > issue. > > Michael > I know that it seems unrelated to systemd-backlight, that service should store and restore brightness through reboots, but here: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1061387/linux/screen-brightness-resets-to-max-after-reboot-linux-/ I have found that systemd-backlight is keeping brightness to maximum and so I tried to disable it just to see if my problem would be fixed, and so it is. The real culprit might be something else as you said previously, but at the moment it is a decent workaround for me and it might be worth investigating it further. Tell me if you need more info.
