You can note your issue below here
Unable to adjust display brightness with keyboard or system settings.
Note any particular steps to reproduce it below here
I tried to installed the "brightness controller" package, as suggested online... But this made no difference, even after a restart.
I can see that there are some GRUB-based solutions that might work, but if I'm brutally honest, nano and GRUB are not my strongpoints, as I find them difficult and confusing to use, and I don't want to be messing with nano / GRUB if I don't have a clear understanding of how to reverse any changes I make (assuming a potential solution doesn't work)... I'm pretty comfortable with Terminal, though.
My laptop screen is awfully dim in my bright office, so any help would be appreciated.
