Hi all,
I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS in Samsung N148. I can't see any option to adjust brightness in System->Preference->monitor. Is there any shell command to adjust brightness ? I have used xgamma -gamma but it change the gamx not brightness.
Cheers (7 Replies)
I need to get a file size and compare it to a previous day file size. If it's larger or smaller by 50 percent I'll replace the new with the old. I know how to get the file sizes but do not know how to calculate if it's 50 percent difference.
Thanks for your help. (2 Replies)
