Adjust screen brightness

Must turn off setting for automatic "Dim Screen". Go to Settings > Power > Power Savings > Turn off the "Dim Screen" setting. Otherwise these commands will not adjust permenantly.

Adjust the screen brighntess: sudo bash -c 'echo VALUE > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

I recently did: sudo bash -c 'echo 3000 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

View current screen brighness cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

Max screen brighness: cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness
