Scripts and configuration files for adjusting the brightness on laptop that are using an Intel video card.
The code was inspired by this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2033273
The script should work with all intel devices that exposes /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight
##To install
- clone the repo
- sudo cp etc/acpi/events/* /etc/acpi/events/
- sudo cp etc/acpi/* /etc/acpi/
- sudo service acpid restart
##To detect what is the code of your brightness keys start acpi_listen
Then press the brightness up and brightness down key.
on my laptop the output is like this for the FN-Right key
video DD02 00000086 00000000
and for the FN-Left key
video DD02 00000087 00000000
if on your laptop the output is different you will need to change the first line of the configuration files: etc/acpi/events/acer-tm-brightness-down etc/acpi/events/acer-tm-brightness-up
Don't forget to restart acpid when you change the files!
