Ubuntu – ddccontrol is not working, but it used to work

I want to change my monitor (Dell S2216H) brightness with commands

ddccontrol -p -r 0x10 -w 53

This command used to work on 16.10 now it doesn't, but gives this output

robing for available monitors.......
Detected monitors :
No monitor supporting DDC/CI available.
If your graphics card need it, please check all the required kernel 
modules are loaded (i2c-dev, and your framebuffer driver).

Output of ddccontrol -p is same

Here is the output of ddcontrol -p when it used to work at pastebin

It stopped working while I was doing this process described by Jacob Vlijm, But after that I've gone through multiple fresh installs but It never worked, the only thing that seems to be different now is I'm running 17.04 but I distinctly remember it working on 16.10 and then failing on fresh installs of 16.10

What are DPDDC-B/C i2c devices?

Ultimately I'm trying to achieve this but ddccontrol needs to work for that
