Not booting after latest update

[a-wai]

To disable auto-brightness:

Code:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power ambient-enabled false

To set a correct brightness value (as root)

Code:

echo 400 > /sys/class/backlight/backlight/brightness

I'm working on a new kernel version which should (hopefully) get the brightness scale right...

from a chroot, that just made everything worse and it wouldn't boot at all. But running it from within a fresh mobian-pinephone-20200615.img.gz installation worked.

yes, I wouldn't have tried that from a chroot, only from a running system (whether it runs from SD or eMMC doesn't matter)
