I think the best way would be that when long pressing the brightness lowering key, it stops lowering it at 1% as with this change, but pressing it once more would make it 0.Also, I wasn't able to keep up with recent changes. Does anyone know if it's possible now to customize the rounded corners of windows and panels?
Laptops usually have a dedicated key to turn off the screen, no?

Mine doesn't, but even if it would have, most of the original special keys don't work in Linux. It's quite annoying because I don't have F keys and Home-PageUp and such, they were accessible with key combinations with the original OS.
