This looks like a solution to me, but I have not tried it because before
ubuntu 18 there was several other issues that made it unrunnable on my
machine. https://github.com/udifuchs/icc-brightness
3) thx. what would you change it to then? Or leave it empty? Its my first
real bug report and I am happy to help.

ok. Now Im on my 16.10 system again.
1. this is the comand I use for 70% it also works for numbers higher than 1
down to 0
xrandr --output eDP-1 --brightness 0.7
for this current system
Linux X1-16 4.13.0-43-generic #48~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 17 12:56:46
UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have not used it prior to 16.10 but I think it worked. All systems newer
than 16.10 so far failed to Support my screen.
something like this discussion. /forums. lenovo. com/t5/ Linux-Discussio n/X-1-Yoga- OLED-brightness -control- under-linux/ td-p/3948282 /ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?t=2337478

This looks like a solution to me, but I have not tried it because before /github. com/udifuchs/ icc-brightness

3) thx. what would you change it to then? Or leave it empty? Its my first
