screen brightness keyboard shortcut

Asked by DerVerruckteFuchs

After browsing all the options for keyboard shortcuts, there aren't any options to bind keys to change screen brightness for a laptop. Custom keyboard shortcuts are also missing, so it's not possible to use that as a workaround. I'm using a Macbook 6,1 (late 2009 white unibody). I also have nvidia-331-updates installed. Is there a package I can install to enable screen brightness shortcuts? If not, when will there be an update that will add screen brightness shortcuts?

Hi Chris,

I went ahead and created a bug report under Switchboard's page for this. You can find it here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/switchboard/+bug/1446011

Feel free to check up on it there and leave any comments. It's a good idea to go ahead and file a bug report for any missing features you'd like seen in future releases. The developers will review them and it will give the best chance of it being implemented.

Thanks for using elementary OS!

Alex
