    Have you tried resetting the monitor to factory specs and then try adjusting the brightness? What model is the display?

    There's a Gnome Extension called soft brightness plus. I've never used it, but it might help.

    There a couple of ways from a terminal that work for me...
    Code:
    xgamma -gamma 0.8
    or
    Code:
    xrandr --output (screen*) --brightness 0.8
    *Run xrandr by itself to determine which screen to use
    Cheers,
