cromas Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Is there a way to turn the LCD screen brightness up or down from within OSX? My normal Fn-Home/End do not work, nor does the OSX F1/F2. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm on an IBM ThinkPad X41 Tablet. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11557-lcd-screen-brightness/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackice Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 the function keys won't work, because they need another app to look out for them. But Iäd be interested in lowering the brightness too. I guess if you were concerned about eyes rather than batteries, you could use mousepose with a dark layer over the entire screen...

Blackice Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 doesn't do anything at all here... (NVidia gpu w/ b2 drivers. Maybe that's why) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11557-lcd-screen-brightness/#findComment-104975 Share on other sites More sharing options...
