Some computers appear to have a shorter battery life when running on Linux than they do when running Windows or Mac OS. One reason for this is that computer vendors install special software for Windows/Mac OS that optimizes various hardware/software settings for a given model of computer. These tweaks are often highly specific, and may not be documented, so including them in Linux is difficult.

Alcuni computer sembra abbiano una minore durata della batteria quando eseguono Linux anziché Windows o Mac OS. Una possibile spiegazione per questo è dovuta al fatto che i produttori installano software speciale per Windows/Mac OS che ottimizza varie impostazioni hardware e software per un preciso modello. Queste modifiche sono spesso altamente specifiche e possono non essere documentate, per cui includerle in Linux è difficile.

Unfortunately, there's not an easy way of applying these tweaks yourself without knowing exactly what they are. You may find that using some <link xref="power-batterylife">simple power-saving methods</link> helps, though. If your computer has a <link xref="power-batteryslow">variable-speed processor</link>, you might find that changing its settings is also useful.

Another possible reason for the discrepancy is that the method of estimating battery life is different on Windows/Mac OS than on Linux. The actual battery life could be exactly the same, but the different methods give different estimates. See <link xref="power-batteryestimate"/> for more information.

If you have a laptop or netbook, there are probably some screen brightness controls on the keyboard. They usually have stylized "sun" icons, and are often on or above the function keys (e.g. <key>F4</key>). On some laptops, you must hold-down the Function (<key>Fn</key>) key and then press one of the brightness keys to change the screen brightness. For example, you might press <keyseq><key>Fn</key><key>F4</key></keyseq> to decrease the brightness and <keyseq><key>Fn</key><key>F5</key></keyseq> to increase it.

You can also change the brightness by clicking the icon at the very right of the <gui>top panel</gui>, selecting <gui>System Settings</gui> and then opening the <gui>Screen</gui> preferences.

If you have a desktop computer, you should be able to use controls on the monitor to change the brightness of the screen. How you do this depends very much on what monitor you have - some have specific buttons to change brightness, whereas others have buttons which you use to navigate on-screen menus.

If you have increased the brightness to the maximum but it's still not bright enough, you may need to adjust the <em>contrast</em> or <em>gamma</em> settings of the screen instead. Not all screens allow you to change both of these settings, however.

Laptops go to sleep when you close the lid, in order to save power.
