ASUS Screenpad Control

This repository contains a version of the asus-wmi module with support for brightness control on secondary screens ("ScreenPad Plus") on ASUS Zenbook Duo notebooks. It also adds a few keys from the Zenbook Duo keyboard (Camera, /A, screen switch, toggle ScreenPad) so they can be mapped in your desktop environment. Credit goes to https://github.com/Plippo/asus-wmi-screenpad

Additinaly this provides a simple GUI application to control bightness with a slider.
