Well, I don't like the values for dim, idle_dim etc in the standard
fsodeviced.conf so I have to change them in the file, which is of
course overwritten with the next upgrade. When I try to change the
values with shr-settings, my changes are not written back. Even worse,
when I leave shr-settings and I start it over, the old values come up
again. Tho I'm always working as root on the FR, a normal user should
be able to have his personal values for this dim stuff.
