Hello,
Since I cannot adjust the brightness on my HP Probook because it sucks
I'm writing a small script that can be use instead. I need to sysctl
the following sysctl variables :
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels
the -brightness one is easy since it's an integer, but the levels is
possibly a char :
mark...@melon ~ $ sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness: 90
mark...@melon ~ $ sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels
hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels: 100 50 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 33 36 40 43 46 50
55 60 65 70 75 80 83 86 90 93 96 100
How can I store the content of hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels? This small
code doesn't work :
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/sysctl.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char buf[128];
size_t len;
len = sizeof (buf);
if (sysctlbyname("hw.acpi.video.lcd0.levels", &buf, &len, NULL, 0) ==
-1) {
perror("sysctl");
return -1;
}
printf("levels = %s\n", buf);
}
mark...@melon ~ $ ./a.out
levels = d
Kind regards,
