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