I'm new in *ubuntu. I'm using lubuntu 14.04. When I'm trying to download Brightness Controller it is saying

This link needs to be open with an application.

Which application to choose? Actually I'm not getting Brightness Controller in Lubuntu Software Center. That's why I've to download it like this. Is there any way?

Choose Software-Center from /usr/bin/software-center

download latest source code from here: Brightness Controler

after extracting, in terminal install this:sudo apt-get install python-wxgtk3.0 now from "SRC" folder run "brightness.py"!

Alternatively, you can install it using the PPA with the following commands:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:apandada1/brightness-controller
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install brightness-controller

You can control brightness using its slider.
