Hi! I am running Fedora 39 on a 13th Gen Intel Framework Laptop, and I can’t get the automatic brightness to work. Has anyone been successful with this?
This post seems to suggest that it should work by default (though this might be referring to Fedora 37/Fedora 38). Anyone have any suggestions?
Hi. The ambient light sensor works by default on Fedora, but on Arch does not. Has anyone had a success with making the auto brightness regulation work in Arch? What type/model of ambient light sensor is used in Framework laptop by the way? I found nothing on ArchWiki about that, tried Autolight from AUR which also doesn’t work. Please advise.
Update. Fonund the solution that worked for me by running the bash script from that guy:
Upd2: The script launches but works kind of weird, seems not r…
It works on the default Gnome Workstation dnf group.
Are you using Gnome or a different DE?
Welcome to the community!
So there are a few things at play here.
On a default install, on 13th gen, you should have automatic brightness working just fine from the Power menu in settings.
Now, if you wanted to use media keys (brightness keys without auto-brightness capability), using
module_blacklist=hid_sensor_hub
From the guide , then the auto-brightness would not work.
Again, all of this assumes 13th gen, no odd tweaks or changes made elsewhere.

There is work underway in plasma to expose iio sensor proxy (which already can be consumed by plasma) to the Powerdevil UI elements.
