David, The first method cannot work for me, because the file "/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness" cannot be changed, with this default value "6144". (I need 9144).

Just find a way that works and stick with it :) The directory Autostart is in : /home/andre/.trinity/Autostart/ So I put exactly this line in "/home/andre/.trinity/Autostart/" ? : scrnbrightwiznv_startup.sh -> /home/andre/scr/adm/scrnbrightwiznv_startup.sh Thanks for your help and Regards, André --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
