GlowFix

The project is to control backlight on laptops which have brightness control issues running X11 windowing system

Dependencies

  • xorg
  • inotify-tools

Installing the project

  1. Run the installer.sh script
  2. Add the app GlowFix to autostart section of your desktop environment

Debugging the issues

  • I've considered the directory under /sys/class/backlight to be amdgpu_bl2
    Now you should change this directory to whatever it is in your laptop in the main.py file
  • There is also a display name variable in main.py
    Now based on your display, the value of variable will change
    Use the command xrandr in order to find the name of your display and put the name in python file
    You can also modify the glowfix.sh in the way that the display name parameter is passed itself while it runs main.py
