"xrandr --output XWAYLAND0 --brightness 0.50" doesn't work on ubuntu 22.04 LTS terminal

By Abigail Rogers

Before I was using ubuntu 20.04 LTS and the same command works fine. Now I change my laptop to MI Notebook Pro and install ubuntu 22.04 LTS which is a latest version of ubuntu and now xrandr --output XWAYLAND0 --brightness 0.50 didn't seems to work. If anyone knows the solution for this problem please comment because I have some eye related issues that's why I need to extra reduce the brightness.
