i have to close and open the lid to adjust brightness mac

So my best guess at this point is that it is the 'Automatically adjust brightness' setting that is causing this behaviour, and that perhaps this setting is ignored when the mac wakes from sleep, adjusting brightness even when unchecked. 2 the screen birghtness does adjust, however the screen returns to whatever brightness the screen was at before seconds later. Toggling the checkbox on and off again also seems to fix it, if only temporarily. If I run xrandr -output eDP-1-1 -brightness. The xbacklight commands do not work while the keys/slider are working or after.ĭoing some google dives I read up on xrandr and decided to try that. Once the keyboard keys and slider stop working (after I wake the computer from sleep) I can update /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness manually and it still updates /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/actual_brightness, however the screen brightness does not change.

I can verify that when the brightness keys are working, they update the values in /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness and /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/actual_brightness. Running xbacklight -inc or xbacklight -dec. The Brightness slider from the GNOME top bar. The brightness keys on keyboard (Fn + F5, Fn + F6). However, after I close the lid of the laptop and open it back up, I am unable to adjust the brightness using the following methods: Upon booting the laptop I can adjust the brightness using either Intel graphics or Nvidia graphics. Running Pop_OS 18.04, clean installed when I switched from Ubuntu 18.04 that the laptop was shipped with.

I'm on an oryx pro (Model: Oryp4) with a 17' display and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card. Thought I would reach out here and see if anyone else has encountered the issue/see if there is a fix. Hi, just purchased a new Oryx Pro and I'm having a little trouble.
