I'm hijacking this thread a bit for a question. Currently we have a "feature" with the lvds code that powers my laptop display, which turns off the screen backlight at modeset, resulting in a near black screen. What should the default behavior be?
Some suggestions: 1) leave it up to the apps (harder to write small simple apps) 2) restore previous power level (what if the screen doesn't have a previous state, or it was off) 3) always go full power (leave it up to the apps to power save) Cheers Jakob. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
