how to change brightness display?
thank you
This thread might hep you:
In
Control Center / Hardware / Power Manager
I cant find brightness control
I cant understand
System>Hardware>Power Mangement>On AC power tab>set display brightness to> adjust slider
or dconf editor gui: org>mate>power manager>brightness-ac mine is at 30.2
You can also turn keyboard backlight on and off from here.
I have no brightness control in power management preferences
dconf can't change brightness
applet does not work
Are you using a Desktop with a detached monitor plugged-in?
If so, my understanding is that the only control offered is by the monitor itself. UM will not have control over that, as far as I know.

I'm using a desktop pc with a monitor
the problem is that i change brightness with monitor buttons but i can't change brightness
Hi @robzane! Can you please post the make and model number of your monitor?
Yes thank You
AOC model 27B2G5
I checked their website (aoc.com) and searched for 27B2G5. The site said it couldn't find that model. The problem may be that I am in Arizona, and the site is only showing me AOC products available in the USA.
May I ask, in what country did you purchase this monitor?
Are you looking for something like this ?
( You can install this by copying and pasting the code below into a terminal and press enter: )
# this will add the ddcui repository, installs ddcui and also
# replaces the corresponding desktopfile with a version that actually works
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rockowitz/ddcutil &&
sudo apt update && sudo apt install ddcui &&
cat<<\DDCUI | sudo tee "/usr/share/applications/ddcui.desktop"

Or do you want to use gamma correction to adjust your brightness ?
