Getting

Warning: no backlight sources have been configured.
Check org.cinnamon.settings-daemon.plugins.power to configure some.
Could not get or set the value of the backlight: No backlight devices present

but my laptop seems to not have any backlight support whatsoever even with light -S so could someone test this with a working backlight?

basically:

result/libexec/csd-backlight-helper --get-max-brightness

We're missing a schema for the wrapper

./result/libexec/csd-power
(csd-power:17877): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 12:10:39.813: Settings schema 'org.cinnamon.SessionManager' is not installed

If you open htop I'm guessing it didn't start 馃槮

omg it's a circular dependency because cinnamon-session needs cinnamon-settings-daemon and so on 馃ぃ

csd-power works thanks to env variables mixing everything up. not sure if I should be happy or sad about that.

So I believe you will only see the error you mentioned if it wasn't running.

I'm running this rn and the backlight works. Though in a very sad state because of the circular dependency.
