  13. Description: Control display backlight controllers and LEDs
  14. Light is a useful tool to control display brightness in lightweight
  15. desktops or window managers that do not have bundled appliations for
  16. this purpose.
  17. .
  18. Most modern laptops have moved away from hardware controlled brightness
  19. and require software control. Light works where other software has
  20. proven to be unreliable, e.g. xbacklight. It can even be used from the
  21. console as it does not rely on X.
  22. .
  23. Light has features like setting a minimum brightness value, as well as
  24. saving and restoring the brightness at reboot and startup.
