            Bug ID: 251844
           Summary: Controlling screen brightness (i2c, ddc, ...)
           Product: Base System
           Version: Unspecified
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: h2+fbsdports at fsfe.org

Linux folks have support for regulating screen brightness via software:
https://github.com/rockowitz/ddcutil

But it doesn't seem like this works on FreeBSD -- although in theory we have
the required subsystems, or not?

The author of the tool has is willing to add FreeBSD support:
https://github.com/rockowitz/ddcutil/issues/118
but needs a little help from FreeBSD hackers. Could someone provide him with
the required information?

Thank you very much!
