brightness keys stopped working
I was running "dpkg --configure -a" a few days ago. Now, I noticed that the keys F11 and F12 no longer adjust brightness.
No percentage is displayed on the screen and the screen clearly does not change brightness.
It has worked without a problem the last 3 years.
My computer is a "Dell Inspiron 15-3552". It is laptop.
uname -a
Linux par-Inspiron-
sudo lspci -v | grep -A10 VGA

Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
I also noticed that:
ll /sys/class/
totalt 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 mar 6 18:18 ./
drwxr-xr-x 54 root root 0 mar 6 17:43 ../
I can assure everyone that the laptop is not equipped with a CRT monitor.
I was wondering if this theoretically could have any connection to the two other issues i have:
#678914
#678910
