welcome forums! , wonderous world of ubuntu! .

if u click ubuntu logo on top left, search "screensaver" screen saver program shud b listed. open that, sumwer on tht "power management" click that, , should give options brightness , similar things.....

***note*** (for record)the ubuntu installed windows program called "wubi" , less stable installing onto hard drive os on own, perhaps causing issues....
