Ok, now there was a change. In *acer-wmi*, I put: > root@Dayman:/home/maxo# cd /sys/class/backlight/ > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight# cd /sys/class/backlight/acer-wmi > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/acer-wmi# cat max_brightness > 15 > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/acer-wmi# 10 > 10: command not found > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/acer-wmi# echo 5 > brightness > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/acer-wmi# echo 7 > brightness and there was no change at all.
But when I went to *intel_backlight*, I got: > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/acer-wmi# cd > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight# cat max_brightness > 976 > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight# echo 5 > brightness > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight# echo 7 > brightness > root@Dayman:/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight# and when I put echo 5 > brightness, the screen went super low, the same with echo 7. I tried changing the brightness using the FN keys and it went at full brightness and once again I can't lower the brightness to about half. Same problems as before but *intel_backlight* is the one that actually changed brightness. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173961 Title: [Gateway NV55C] Two backlight interfaces that wont adjust backlight.
