I am unable to adjust the brightness of the backlight of my laptop screen either by using the slider of by changing the value in /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness directly.
I have tried changing my GRUB configuration:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_backlight=vendor"
But that did not help.
I am using Ubuntu 19.10
