https://gitlab.com/ddcci-driver-linux/ddcci-driver-linux is the better way, exposing everything we need via the backlight sysfs interface that brightnessctl uses.

@Hummer12007 I installed Ubuntu – Details of package ddcci-dkms in focal sudo apt install ddcci-dkms
, and restarted. I am trying to set the brightness of my external monitor connected with HDMI cable to 50%
$ xrandr -q | grep " connected"
eDP-1-1 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
HDMI-1-1 connected primary 1920x1200+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 519mm x 324mm
$ brightnessctl -d=hdmi* s 50
Device '=hdmi*' not found.
$ brightnessctl -d=HDMI-1-1 s 50
Device '=HDMI-1-1' not found.
Any suggestions?

Check brightnessctl -l
output for the correct device name.
from brightnessctl.
$ brightnessctl -l

@Hummer12007, we can see that the device name output from -l
option doesn't work! Moreover I don't think that it even includes my external monitor connected with HDMI cable!
from brightnessctl.
It's -d ath9k-phy0
(or --device=ath9k-phy0
) instead
from brightnessctl.
@Hummer12007 This device is for Wireless. As, I said before the external monitor is not even listed in the list of devices!
