Installed 12.1 and the Nvidia binary driver in a vaio laptop with an Nvidia
card.
I can’t change the screen brightness any more (I could with the default
installed driver).
Can somebody suggest a way to control the screen brightness?
Thanks

In a terminal as ordinary user, try the command “xbacklight”. It should report the brightness setting. For options controlling brightness, enter:
xbacklight --help

Thanks for the clue, consused. I did not know about this command, but
unfortunately it responds:
“No outputs have backlight property”
