[SOLVED] Brightness control not working

Basic Help & Support
#1 
  Hi! My brightness control using function keys was working in live environment but after installing it's not working, but other things like volume control is working fine.
   so what should i do to make the keys work again and what alternative program can i use if the keys dont work? thanks.
Sleep disables screen lock in live session?

What model of laptop are you using?

I have a Toshiba Sattellite with this problem. I could never get the brightness keys to work until I installed one of the DE power managers - I went with the mate-power-manager since it had a smaller memory footprint than xfce-power-manager.

So that would be an alternative program solution if nothing else works for you.

Thank you, the xfce4-power-manager worked and now i can change brightness through the statusbar icon. I have a Dell Vostro btw.
