What DE and are you in Wayland or X11?

If you are using X11 methods to control brightness in Wayland, that’s generally not going to work.

mesa ubuntu?

ah i see… Mint :wink:

And thats hybrid optimus device dual GPU.

could have issues with nouveau:

but it does run on the igpu anyway for you same would be in case you install EndeavourOS.

11

What should I do to fix it ?

12

My only guess is to check the Driver Manager on Mint and install the Nvidia drivers if you haven’t.

13

and to actually use the decent GPU (Nvidia) you would need to configure or install a switcher.
It could be already an issue to not have the propritary Nvidia driver installed for the brightness issue… as system could have issue communicating with the GPU.

If I remember correctly, Asus has a special package for various settings. Try something like:

yay -Ss asus

I actually give up I’m convinced my issue won’t be solved thanks for everyone who tried to help
