Laptop Screen is Dark!

Go to solution Solved by Hashiyan,

Is there  an FN combo on your keyboard or something to change sound? If so there is a high chance that there is the same thing for brightness on a screen. 

It's stuck on the low-battery screen. I've never had the battery to this laptop and it's plugged into the wall outlet. My power went out during a storm today and now it's stuck in the dim battery saving state..... I'm running Linux on it and adjusting the brightness changes nothing. I already did the basic stuff like unplugging it, restarting it, and turning it off and on. I need help.

LOL thanks. It was Fn + Up arrow. I'm so noob with KB shortcuts.

Sweet thanks xD

I was worried that the inverter went out. Glad that wasn't the case :)
