qdbus: Display the current brightness value in a KDE Plasma session.

qdbus

$ qdbus ${org-kde-Solid-PowerManagement} ${-org-kde-Solid-PowerManagement-Actions-BrightnessControl} ${org-kde-Solid-PowerManagement-Actions-BrightnessControl-brightness}

try on your machine

This command is using the qdbus tool to interact with the Solid Power Management service in the KDE desktop environment. Here is the breakdown of the command:

${org-kde-Solid-PowerManagement}: This is a placeholder for the name of the Solid Power Management service. It represents the unique identifier or name of the service.

${-org-kde-Solid-PowerManagement-Actions-BrightnessControl}: This is another placeholder, representing the name of the Brightness Control action within the power management service.

${org-kde-Solid-PowerManagement-Actions-BrightnessControl-brightness}: This is the last placeholder, representing the specific brightness property within the Brightness Control action.

The command itself is using these placeholders to communicate with the Solid Power Management service and perform operations related to brightness control. The actual values for these placeholders would need to be substituted in order to execute the command successfully.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
