Sorry things didn't work for you. Beta software, etc etc. On Thu 17 Mar 2016 22:44, Albin writes: > * Brightness controls didn't work in GNOME's control panel logged in as > user. It did worked when logged in as root however. I had this problem until I uninstalled gnome-settings-daemon from my user profile. I am not certain that this was what caused things to start working but I think it is. I think it is related to which services get chosen for d-bus or for execlp; not sure. It could be your user profile was out of date. I do not know. FWIW everything now works for me, which is a first in a year :) Regards, Andy
