Linux fundamentals for beginners


In Linux if you experience high brightness in the screen you can use the following approaches.

First approach :
Click the icon at the top right corner and go to System Settings and then go to “Brightness & Lock”. There I could reduce the brightness.
           
Second approach : Using the terminal
            First install “xbacklight “ using the following the terminal command.
                  sudo apt-get install xbacklight

Then set the brightness using the below command. In here you can set values from 0 to 100. I have set here 50.
                  xbacklight -set 50

Then you can increase or decrease the brightness.

                 To increase (Here I increase brightness by 10)     : xbacklight -inc 10
                 To decrease (Here I decrease brightness by 10)  : xbacklight-dec 10
