Hello everyone, I am new to Debian, and have recently installed Debian 8.6 Jessie GNOME 3.0 on my sony vaio VPCEH38FN. It has a Nvidia Geforce 410 M graphics card. The issue is that the screen brightness is set to maximum and it is not changing by hotkeys Fn+F6/F5.The brightness indicator changes the value but it doesnot reflect on the screen. Any help would be appreciate.Thanks in advanced. Atish

You might take a look at this page... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight ... and see if there is some information there that helps you. Keep in mind that it is an ubuntu wiki page, so not everything there translates directly to debian. (In other words, do not try to follow the instructions to report bugs using "ubuntu-bug" command, etc.) If you find a workaround or a solution (or if you do not) I hope you will keep us posted here.

Congratulations on your new Debian! Does your Fn key work as expected for other behaviors such as turning wifi on and off, raising the sound level up and down, those kinds of actions *IF* that worked previously for your setup?

Yeah, the problem was solved by some minor changes /etc/default/grub.dEdit this line:GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet"toGRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor" And it was done. This worked on my Ubuntu 14.04. And fortunately here on debian also.. And yes Cindy, other Fn/hotkeys works just fine on my pc with debian.
