| bgstack15 | Does anyone have a simple graphical tool, similar to arandr, that can control screen brightness/gamma? | 14:31 |
|---|---|---|
| bgstack15 | I use fluxbox, but I installed xfce4-settings-manager to try its display settings, but it doesn't have a gamma/brightness setting that I saw. | 14:31 |
| bgstack15 | I can do it from command line I suppose: https://shallowsky.com/blog/linux/x-brightness-with-xrandr.html | 14:32 |
| bgstack15 | But I want to be lazy today! | 14:32 |
| bgstack15 | maybe fsmithred, you might have a cool yad script for this already? | 14:32 |
| fsmithred | bgstack15, yes I do. It's called redshifty and it uses redshift and maybe randr, too. | 14:33 |
| fsmithred | actually I have a few | 14:33 |
| bgstack15 | cool, checking "redshift-gtk" now | 14:34 |
| fsmithred | https://termbin.com/wm7e | 14:34 |
| bgstack15 | Ooh, a small, personal script. I'll check that first! | 14:34 |
| bgstack15 | Thank you. | 14:34 |
| fsmithred | oh shit, is my name in there? | 14:35 |
| bgstack15 | I haven't looked very hard at it yet. Still trying to apt-purge xfce4-settings* | 14:35 |
| fsmithred | settings? why? | 14:36 |
| fsmithred | https://termbin.com/kif4 | 14:36 |
| fsmithred | ^^^ set-bright4 | 14:36 |
| fsmithred | those are the two I'm using on this computer. | 14:37 |
| bgstack15 | I use fluxbox; I just installed xfc4-settings just to see if it had the gamma settings in there. It didn't, so I don't want it cluttering (all 8MB) of my disk. | 14:37 |
| fsmithred | there are some variants floating around for laptops | 14:37 |
| fsmithred | lol | 14:37 |
| fsmithred | you might need to edit the script to use the right name(s) for your outputs | 14:38 |
| fsmithred | it's also possible I coded it to figure out the right names. | 14:38 |
| fsmithred | and I'm not sure the gamma setting works in any or all of these | 14:39 |
| bgstack15 | Thanks very much! | 14:42 |
| fsmithred | https://termbin.com/ssj5 | 14:42 |
| fsmithred | ^^^ set-bright with a slider instead of a counter | 14:42 |
| bgstack15 | I eventually found exactly what I want, once I modified it to work with multiple monitors: https://bgstack15.ddns.net/cgit/xbright/log/?h=multimonitor | 20:06 |
| fsmithred | bgstack15, that one was already set to work with two monitors. | 22:54 |
| bgstack15 | I know. I wanted one that could live update based on the sliders' values. | 22:55 |
| fsmithred | oh, that one is not mine | 22:55 |
