How I fixed the screen brightnes on ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605MV running Project Bluefin / Fedora Silverblue

How I fixed the screen brightnes on ASUS ROG Zephyrus G16 GU605MV running Project Bluefin / Fedora Silverblue

In general you follow the steps at: https://asus-linux.org/guides/fedora-silverblue-guide/ to set everything up.

The rpm-ostree install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-power asusctl supergfxctl command had some conflics with stuff already installed by bluefin. So I installed those one by one instead to make sure I had everything, because for some reason rpm-ostree freaks out and cancels all installs if one conflics...

Screen Brightness

The screen brightness on the keyboard does not work on Project Bluefin / Fedora after I installed in on my new ASUS ROG G16 and following the stpes on the above link though.

This article gave some hints: https://www.ehmiiz.se/blog/linux_asus_g16_2024/

Those steps cannot be followed on Fedora Silverblue, but here's the equivalent of editing the grub config for us on atomic Fedora:

rpm-ostree kargs --append='i915.enable_dpcd_backlight=1 acpi_backlight=native nvidia.NVreg_EnableBacklightHandler=0'
