No brightness control on NVIDIA (HP-Omen)

I’m running Manjaro KDE Plasma on an HP Omen notebook.

I did a fresh install and brightness control doesn’t work. Tried the other thread that offered a workaround, but couldn’t get it to work. I’m stuck at i think 50% brightness, which make my notebook screen really hard to use.

Tried following different guides showed in here https://forum.manjaro.org/t/cant-adjust-screen-brightness-lenovo-laptop-nvidia-xfce/28771/17

I am finding a similar issue after an update. My screen brightness control doesn’t function either. For me it is quite dim, and severely bothering my eyes. In the interests of comparision, I’ll post my version of the same specs. (Much of it is greek to me).

Mine does not have the “ENABLEBrightnessControl=1”. So at least we know that setting isn’t directly determinant (despite it’s seeming relevance).

/etc/default/grub

Here, my entries were different. So to to start with, I tried commenting them out, with no effect. Here they are, disabled.

#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor"

I am now going to copy and paste the other Grub commands into my grub file and reboot.

Changing my grub config file to include the following lines had no effect after reboot:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video.use_native_backlight=1"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nvidia.NVreg_RegistryDwords=EnableBrightnessControl=1"

I don’t have the solution to getting brightness control working for you, but I too am unable to change my screen brightness. On occasion, my screen is less bright than I would like, too. When that happens, I have discovered that simply putting the laptop to sleep and then waking it back up will restore it to full brightness. A reboot does not change the brightness level when this happens, just the suspend.

Just posting this to see if it helps you if you are still stuck in “dim” mode.

Maybe you can refer to this article:

It was fine when I used the 5.15.2-2 kernel, but since the upgrade last week……

Dont know whether any of what is here might help but thought I would share it…

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Backlight
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=230932

Regards

Yes. Thanks. That does restore some (or all) brightness. I can’t tell what level it is because the brightness slider isn’t effecting a change in light level. But it is brighter.

Hello, as someone who has dealt with a similar issue on an HP Omen myself, I may be able to help a bit.
You haven’t stated your issue quite clearly, but if you have the same one I used to have, then I can be of help. My brightness keys work and brightness change bar shows on screen, it just didn’t do anything to the actual backlight of the screen. This seems to be a problem with nvidia drivers. The proprietary driver version up to 465.24.02 used to work well, but after that on some laptops the brightess controls just stopped working. Luckily there was a version 495.44 around a month or two ago that fixed this for most laptops: NVIDIA DRIVERS Linux x64 (AMD64/EM64T) Display Driver

Here’s some useful info:

  1. An active nvidia forum on this issue:
    Laptop backlight control regression with 465.24.02 - #34 by danito8905 - Linux - NVIDIA Developer Forums
  2. A guide on how to manually install nvidia drivers from their website
    https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-the-nvidia-drivers-on-manjaro-linux

P.S. I know that manual driver installation may look a bit scary as you won’t have access to a desktop environment and may be frowned upon by some people who love their drivers managed by mhwd or pacman, but it did fix the issue for me and some people on that forum.

Feel free to contact me if you need more info. I hope I was of help!
