    Screen Brightness Options Are Great

    I am very pleased to find that the latest versions of Kubuntu now have two screen brightness control options.

    In Kubuntu 22.04 LTS, I accidentally found a screen brightness utility (for Gnome, I think) in the Synaptic Package Manager. It is called gddccontrol. I added it to my Taskbar. It enables the user to adjust the screen brightness to any desired setting. (Before this, I had to use the control settings built into my monitor. This was clumsy and inconvenient.)​

    In Kubuntu 24.04 LTS, a Display Brightness control​ feature was added to the System Tray utility for the Taskbar. This same feature can be found in the Add Widgets utility for the Desktop.

    Screen brightness has always been a major issue for me. I suffer eye strain and headaches― even when using a screen filter. The only solution is for me to reduce the brightness the lowest level that my eyes can tolerate.

    Ten years ago, when I abandoned MS Windows, I was disappointed that I could not find this feature on Debian Linux.
