I'm no real expert, but I dare to guess some answers anyway... > Will there ever be a Control Center like the Windows version ? Probably not. It is not the job of a driver to communicate with the user. GUIs are made by other people. Your desktop environment could provide such a tool. To increase brightness to 150%, you can use xrandr --output --brightness 1.5 To reduce contrast to 75%, you can use xrandr --output --gamma 0.75:0.75:0.75 Greets, Kiste From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Oliver Seitz Subject: Re: Question (about setting brightness and contrast) Date: Tue, 15 May 2012 09:46:10 +0200 Message-ID: <4FB209C2.3060601@vtnd.de> References: <001701cd321e$f1024d40$d306e7c0$@gmail.com> <4FB20720.4000701@vtnd.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; Format="flowed" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Received: from srv6.berlinhosting.de (srv6.berlinhosting.de [87.118.86.113]) by gabe.freedesktop.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7F35A9E7D8 for ; Tue, 15 May 2012 00:46:12 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <4FB20720.4000701@vtnd.de> List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: intel-gfx-bounces+gcfxdi-intel-gfx=m.gmane.org@lists.freedesktop.org Errors-To: intel-gfx-bounces+gcfxdi-intel-gfx=m.gmane.org@lists.freedesktop.org To: intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org List-Id: intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org > To reduce contrast to 75%, you can use > > xrandr --output --gamma 0.75:0.75:0.75 Ok, sorry, gamma is not the same as contrast. But gamma can be used to achieve similar shifts of the relation of dark to bright colors, so it might be suitable to get the desired effect here. Greets, Kiste
