I recently installed ubuntu 17.10.1 after previously messing it up.So while I was reinstalling Android Studio I faced an issue where it refused to install.After following some tutorial I found out that the issue was running their installer script as Super User but before that another one had mislead me into using this command "unset DISPLAY" so now I can access my display devices and I badly need the night light feature.Please help.



Here is a screenshot of what I get in the display devices panel.Yet before using the command I could access it.link here

          Did you just try logging out and in again? Anyway, the default value of the DISPLAY variable is :0
          so to reset it:



          export DISPLAY=":0"
