Hello David,
I cannot create the file "${USER}-backlight" in /usr/local/share/
or I don't understand (maybe the "$" ?)
Thanks, regards,
andré
cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

/usr/local/share/${USER}-backlight
Then simply create another script (linked within ~/.trinity/Autostart) that
will restore the brightness level on trinity startup, e.g.
#!/bin/sh
savedbl="/usr/local/share/${USER}-backlight"
sysfile="/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness"
if [ -s "$savedbl" ] ## if saved backlight file exists
then
sudo sh -c "cat '"$savedbl"' >
'"$sysfile"'" ## restore saved backlight
fi
(just make sure the file is executable and that you have sudo privileges)
