 |
|
How can I get my settings from nvidia-settings to take effect when I log into Xfce? My settings are retained somewhere because when I open nvidia-settings, it's the way I last set it, but those settings don't take effect until I run nvidia-settings (in other words, my screen brightens up the way I set nvidia-settings to do so but only when running nvidia-settings for the first time per session).

Create a startup script using XFCE's control panel, and add:
| Code: | | /usr/bin/nvidia-settings --load-config-only |
For the brightness, I use in an initscript (i.e. run as root):
| Code: | | echo 5 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness |

My upgrade from kernel 3.3.x to 3.4.1 has somehow removed /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/ , so a quick alternative is to run as a normal user, within X:
| Code: | | nvidia-settings -a RedBrightness=-0.4 -a GreenBrightness=-0.4 -a BlueBrightness=-0.4 > /dev/null |
Edit: For /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/, I need acpi_backlight=legacy |
