Display gamma.
Hi.
I would like to use OpenBSD on a daily basis, almost all soft I need presents in repos. But there is a stoppable moment: I did not find xgamma package (or something like) for increase brightness of my ancient CRT monitor (yes, such life, for now). https://cloudflare.cdn.openbsd.org/p...ackages/amd64/ Would you please advise what to do? Thank you. |

Hi,
You can search for packages on this site http://openports.se/ Here are the answers I get: - x11/gnome/color-manager - x11/kde4/kgamma - x11/gammapage (the package name is GAMMApage) I'd try the latter first. The two other ones should only be used if you already have Gnome or KDE installed. |

Anyway, usually on BSDs, the best way of adjusting brightness is through sysctl or wsconsctl tunable values handled by a dedicated ACPI display driver, which is acpi_video(4) in FreeBSD, acpiout(4) in NetBSD and seems to be acpivout(4) on OpenBSD. Adjusting brightness at hardware level even outside Xenocara should be as easy as: Code:
wsconsctl display.brightness=$BRIGHTNESS Code:
echo "setvar wsdisplay display.brightness $BRIGHTESS" >> /etc/wscons.conf
