Linux getting started Tutorial: Ubuntu laptop screen brightness adjustment

The day before yesterday, I started a Dell notebook, i7 fifth-generation processor, 8 GB memory, 1 TB hard drive, and met my requirements for mobile workstations. Today, we decided to replace the genuine win8 with Ubuntu. The consequence of DIY is that the system started in 3 seconds has become now 15 seconds. But another problem is bothering me, that is, the brightness of the screen cannot be adjusted. This should be attributed to the driver problem, because the brightness adjustment tool provided by the system does not work. The method is SystemSettings & mdash; & gt; Pers.

The day before yesterday, I started a Dell notebook, i7 fifth-generation processor, 8 GB memory, 1 TB hard drive, and met my requirements for mobile workstations. Today, we decided to replace the genuine win8 with Ubuntu. The consequence of DIY is that the system started in 3 seconds has become now 15 seconds. But another problem is bothering me, that is, the brightness of the screen cannot be adjusted. This should be attributed to the driver problem, because the brightness adjustment tool provided by the system does not work.

The method is: System Settings-> Personal-> Brightness & Lock --> adjust the Brightness slider.

A netizen's solution is to write a script to modify the screen brightness value and start it after it is turned on. This method is feasible after I verify it.

The method is as follows:

1. Script content:

$ Cat/usr/local/sbin/brightness. sh

Echo 465>/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

The maximum brightness of the notebook is:

$ Cat/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness

937

So I can set 465.

2. Set this script to boot

Add the following script to/etc/rc. local.

$ Sudo vim/etc/rc. local

...

/Usr/local/sbin/brightness. sh

Restart the system and check the changes.
