I can modify /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
to set brightness of the screen.
Previously I had Windows installed, and the lowest brightness went down to some certain point, however, on Linux, and by modifying that manually or by using xfce4
, I can get the screen brightness too low, way way lower than the lowest on Windows.
So I am asking, do I use this as a feature? or could it possibly damage the hardware?
What I mean by very low is like, barely backlit, the point it becomes really hard to read something on a typically lighted room.
Like I can get the brightness
down to 1
on Linux, while the equivalent of Windows' lowest brightness is like 100
