I am trying to set the brightness of my built in screen using “xrandr”, but it is not working.
I am using a chromebook with duel-booted linux, and I have access to a terminal.
I am currently using
xrandr --output $($STY) --brightness 0
but my computer throws up an error saying
xrandr: unrecognized option '0'
Try 'xrandr --help' for more information.
I think that bash tries to take my current screen (0) as an argument, but I want it to be passed after “–output”.
