Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
First of all, the only Brightness adjustment I could find was under Power Management. That certainly does have a bearing on the amount of power consumed by the PC, but this is a visual adjustment and I think more appropriate under the Display settings. Second, Brightness as a factor in Power Management is probably more an issue when dealing with laptops and notebooks, not so much with desktop PCs. Desktop PCs also have separate monitors with their own settings, but that is not true of portables. And Contrast? Never found it, only found where others could not find it either. Many web pages have light colored text rather than black lettering, and trying to make that out against a light background is really hard. If there were an incorporated Contrast setting, I could deal with that. And it is certainly needed in portables that do not provide separate external controls for adjustments.
