Hi all,

I've really grown to like f.lux (justgetflux.com) however, it is not free software. Does anyone know of similar software?

Thanks,
A. Fleckenstein

Try redshift. It's in the Trisquel repository.

For active LCD, you can set the brightness manually with “xbacklight -steps 1 -set BRIGHTNESS” I use “light BRIGHTNESS”. I have the following lines in my .bashrc:

function light () {
if [ $# == 1 ]; then
xbacklight -steps 1 -set $1
elif [ $# == 0 ]; then
xbacklight
fi
}

The scale goes from 0 to 100. Typing “light” in the command line prompt will give you the current brightness.
