reLuminate is a service to enable enhanced screen brightness levels beyond the factory limits on the reMarkable Paper Pro. This change persists across system boots.

• ✅ All software versions

To start, enable developer mode and gain ssh access to your tablet. The install instructions assume you are sshing over USB where the tablet will show up at 10.11.99.1. If you are sshing wirelessly, substitute the correct IP address.

1. Download install-reLuminate.sh

2. Copy install-reLuminate.sh to reMarkable tablet

   scp install-reLuminate.sh root@10.11.99.1:~
   

3. ssh to reMarkable tablet

   ssh root@10.11.99.1
   

4. Install reLuminate

   bash install-reLuminate.sh install
   

1. Uninstall reLuminate

   bash install-reLuminate.sh remove
   

systemctl enable reLuminate --now

systemctl disable reLuminate --now

During boot, the service will enable the linear_mapping mode and set the screen brightness to max. Now the brightness slider will have access to higher brightness levels.

echo yes > /sys/class/backlight/rm_frontlight/linear_mapping
cat /sys/class/backlight/rm_frontlight/max_brightness > /sys/class/backlight/rm_frontlight/brightness
