Bernhard You can also try xbacklight -set 1 (for lowest) ... I had the same problem: the brightness key on my keyboard seems to only step in steps of 10 ... 0 10 20 30 etc. So I made my own shortcuts from 1-10, but end up using mostly 5 and 1 in the evenings. In addition, you might also want to run redshift. /Sven -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEE18ry22WNibwI1qeq2m4We49UH7YFAlxnpyUACgkQ2m4We49U H7Z6zQ//fUIQ/3cFMHBMOZbhxmPJAiwvj5pqxB33GpUUcCYBwCpwr9X5KzBBlU// as3l9uYrgtRqRiNBjDHdXmofEEBL3B6fH5R0vqVRumMyfDg0KrA0w9guDNT7JW76 lE/a7rGYCWfKhbbQPmT6Uwm2z2F4mdOAS+x6uRsCGSfv9+taiybSDjIOQrvefbjt by9rrTZnvUFmuL4J0PsswJTnPy0EuEFBJsibFPCh+vjhM1gefWWpQGjJAalijliS Zemo7vgbMJIVIm/YY+4DeGMSvYbNLkpfUuqaauc4YiQD9XevOc6hGDZP0up5cgqB 9pVAihASVfKven7jP59Hx0VnfNFgnuhPfQ67UO1l4m//9nOY1iA4RCqek3JtKTKO YYQW5KiwTNBRZOdp0lN9BQ8ag3qVGl6M1n1Q8zSSnT1jFGbVgs3c1fOrReltLPLY yzZulopgBpXmzVWzZuneHvHvjofQtbCVc/pjZkNccC6yGAi5bmXvPgL53bbVyvpN 2QNviuhBVpzv/GpeH6+z/UrPX3zcpj3Q+gIx2H6ugRsCSQWGV6syMptS0qyAFH3+ 2DhAI2x1eaIllYdppd7THpe/5uuSZBflvwW0twv0XCgudAdwXb0+9HWbR4JCJTrr R9I457DsIdyLPL+YYwYiieJEscC/t1dZy6IVUi+PXrAo+JwVDLU= =uuM0 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Bernhard I believe that setting is imported from Fedora, maybe try and search "Dell model insertname fedora brightness"? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

If you're using XFCE and you have the Power Management tray icon in your
Notification Tray, you can also right-click on it and it'll bring up a
screen brightness slider that you can adjust, if your machine supports
it (for example, it doesn't appear on my desktop but it does on my
notebook).
