Auto brightness on power state change? (battery/AC)

Hi, I haven't yet been able to find the answer to this one through Google & forum searches yet. How can I enable auto-dimming on power state changes? I'm using lightdm and Cinnamon. Thanks!

Try using dimdaemon -> https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dimdaemon/

If you need help, just ask in the dedicated thread.

Cinnamon uses pm-utils. See the wiki, esp this section.
