I'm using Asus Zenbook Pro Duo, Intel Core i7 and Nvidia RTX 2060.
$ ls /sys/class/backlight
intel_backlight
When I change the brightness from the keyboard, it shows values going up and down, but it doesn't actually reflect in the brightness levels. It always stays full bright.
The following values change from keyboard interaction, but don't change screen brightness.
$ cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
14496
$ inxi -G
