*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1545266 ***

** Description changed:

- f.lux also has no effect. 
- also when i try to do
-  sudo echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
- then it says 'bash: brightness: permission denied'.
+ If I go to System Settings - Brightness and Lock then I can find a
+ Brightness slider input.  But when I move the slider to a different
+ position, the brightness of the screens does not change.
+ 
+ Earlier I said f.lux does not work either. I have found that f.lux does
+ not install correctly and should not be expected to work apparently.
+ People say to get resdshift instead. I get messages from python about
+ unset
+ 
+ The software called redshift is able to make the screens a different
+ color, so that is good.
+ 
+ sudo echo 50 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness

+ This status is invalid so I should not be editing it, I should be
