Hi,

Perhaps in Arch wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Backlight)
you'll find more.

The relevant files in /sys are owned by the 'video' group.

Not sure what would be used on BSD or Unix though and you don't say
what OS you're using.


I'm using Linux.  Unfortunately I'm more looking for a graphical app
(best would be something which can be added to stalonetray).


The search "xbacklight gui" suggests there are multiple choices.

Perhaps this one:

This does work somehow but I'm rather looking for an applet with a graphical 
interface, i.e. a slider controllable with the mouse.

Not sure this is of any use to you, but the designated Fn+key combination (F10 
on my laptop) works for me. I'm running fvwm as the window manager via 
.xsession on a Linux Mint Mate 19 box.

Under Linux I have key bindings set up that call this Python script
installed in /usr/local/bin:

https://gitlab.com/wavexx/acpilight/blob/06fcb7452e8b79107860425af4aecc1dac9e06b1/xbacklight

Not sure what would be used on BSD or Unix though and you don't say what
OS you're using.

Hello,

is there an laptop backlight control applet which can be used with FVWM (and 
possibly stalonetray)?
