Adjusting the screen brightness

Fn does not adjust the brightness of the screen. Because fn adjusts the /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness file, and the I card file is /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness.

First, the test code

Start the system, when the grub menu appears, press “e” edit, in the line with the Linux kernel path, add “acpi_backlight=vendor”, such as: Br>

linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-30-generic root=UUID=75c414be-2e17-407a-b699-94f6a398dff7 ro acpi_backlight=vendor quiet splash

If it starts normally, and use Fn can adjust the screen brightness, indicating success, and then the next step.

Second, modify grub

sudo vi /etc/default/grub

Find:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“”

Change to:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“acpi_backlight=vendor“

My grub file is as follows:

# If you change this file, run ‘update-grub’ afterwards To update

# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:

# info -f grub -n ‘Simple configuration’

GRUB_DEFAULT=0

#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true

GRUB_TIMEOUT=3

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR= `lsb_release -i -s 2" /dev/null
