[Bug 2085359] Re: [Asus ROG Zephyrus G16] No backlight control

It's worth noting the Nvidia driver isn't loading, or isn't installed
properly. But also that might not be related to this bug.


** Summary changed:

- my brightness control from the drop down menu on the top right section of the screen does not reduce the brightness at all. screen is always at full brightness which takes up a lot of battery.
+ [Asus ROG Zephyrus G16] No backlight control

** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)
