That's not exactly true. While there isn't a way to control the backlight with ordinary monitor connections, brightness and contrast of the generated video signal can be controlled. Of course this gives worse results than supplying a full signal to the monitor, and adjusting the monitor controls. And cannot make a picture more brilliant if you're using a (LCD) monitor that uses a backlight (that's running dim). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
