Brightness level resets itself back to full brightness after every reboot

  • 772

I can easily adjust the level of brightness with the function keys while I'm actively working in the OS, but it resets itself back to full brightness after every reboot which, of course, is something I don't want. I would like to be able to have my latest adjustments automatically saved for me so that I don't have to tinker with them every time I boot up my PC.

Version of Ubuntu installed is 14.04.3 LTS

    You can achieve that using xbacklight

    sudo apt-get install xbacklight

    Then you can check current brightnes by xbacklight -get and set it by xbacklight -set xx where xx is percent... To make it permanent you can make a startup script. here is a great guide how to do so: How to run scripts on start up?
