I walk away from the machine; come back hours later to find that the
screen is dim.  The following command confirms that the cause is
something in Ubuntu

xrandr --listmonitors --verbose | egrep -3 -i 'gamma|backl|brightn'

Has shown value for "Brightness" of 0.11, 0.18, 0.0018, 0.20, and
possibly other values.  (Gamma is all 1.0.)  This occurs on both
monitors that I have hooked up, but the values are usually different.  I
like a Brightness of 0.80,  I know how to manually change with xrandr or
a brightness-controller app.  When the brightness is too low it is very
hard to fix things without rebooting.

I am currently running 21.10, but I have had mysterious crashes in older
versions of Ubuntu; I now wonder if the was going all the way to zero in
some of those crashes.
