Hide Forgot
Description of problem: Backlight controls doesn't work, either on Wayland and X. I really have no idea if it's drivers fault, but it's most obvious (at least for me). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Rawhide with newest updates. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to reduce backlight in Gnome Settings. 2. 3. Actual results: No effect. Expected results: Dimmer image from the monitor. Additional info: I tried xrandr --output eDP --gamma 0.5:0.5:0.5 (and xgamma equivalent) and it works for 1-2 seconds and screen is brightened again. For now I'm manually setting integer value in /sys/class/backlight/radeon_bl0/brightness file, but it requires root privileges (sudo isn't enough). I'm on radeon graphics on Acer Aspire V5 laptop. lspci: 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Kabini [Radeon HD 8210] Thanks.
It's fixed in Gnome 3.22. Thanks.
