Depending on the hardware/driver we have to work with a huge variety of levels, for example with the default driver my laptop has from 1-7 while with the "raw" driver it has from 1-2500.
Image we increase 10 on every step, it will take a a while to go from 1 to 2500 and it won't work with the 1-7 case. So we do some math to make sure that we offer a consistent behavior across all hardware: http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kde-workspace.git&a=blob&h=ff1dda97c1d65369f37bcb2453fa7482aa147ada&hb=404f97e60d545127be62b7c9c9b822855e0ec03d&f=powerdevil%2Fdaemon%2Fbackends%2Fupower%2Fpowerdevilupowerbackend.cpp Accepting a patch that makes it possible to modify this can be considered, specially taking into account that special hardware might need this. _______________________________________________ Kde-hardware-devel mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-hardware-devel
