In yesterdays daily build I tried to change screen brightness. The screen somewhat blinked and I saw a waiting cursor for a second. Unfortunately, the screen brightness didn't change.

After running this command, I had no more reaction from pressing the keys. I couldn't get a network connection to download xbacklight to run the part of the script that changes the brightness
xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL native

Looking hopeful,
