    Post Auto screen brightness -- too dim in dark environment

    The brightness is adjustable, manually. I have not found any means of adjusting the bounds of the auto brightness mode. It is the low intensity limit that needs adjustment.

    Thread Auto screen brightness -- too dim in dark environment

    It works, it's just that it over compensates in the dark. I know there is probably not much that can be done about it, just thought I'd ask.

    OK, not I understand. I'm sorry but I don't know of a solution, maybe you could set something up with sym-links. I've never had the problem because once I went to CM, I never looked back. I'm curious, why all the switching back and forth?
