Disable Display-dimming
 
Is it possible to disable Displaydimming?

Re: Disable Display-dimming
 
If you set it to the same time as the "Switch off display" setting, then it will go straight to off with no dim.

I want it to be permanent on, because I want to use mclock as a normal clock

With this you can select up to 24 hour, or 1440 minutes from the control panel display settings



DIMMER:

gconftool-2 --type "list" --list-type "int" --set "/system/osso/dsm/display/possible_display_dim_timeouts" "[10,30,60,120,300,600,1200,1800,3600,86400]"

BLANKER:

gconftool-2 --type "list" --list-type "int" --set "/system/osso/dsm/display/possible_display_blank_timeouts" "[10,30,60,120,300,600,1200,1800,3600,86400]"

Where did you get mclock from? :confused: It doesn't show as available yet.

Edit: Never mind. I found it at Maemo. :) It shows not available at Garage Maemo.:eek:

How do you access the conf files from the tablet?

Right now, it's only in Downloads. Only got the garage project up this week, but hadn't yet any spare time to invest.

This is awesome. I put it in and it is THE BEST. Thank you PenguinBait.

Yeah. It's all that I use for that type of thing. Makes updating display settings really easy as you don't have to remember that long stringed command.

Ok, now how about power schemes? Can I have always on display when on AC power and dim/off display on battery?

Thanks!

You'll need to install acmonitor. Then just set your display timeouts to your liking on AC, then unplug and set them on battery. You can also set different brightness levels, and it will remember those too. I've been using it for several months over multiple firmware releases with no problems. :)

Edit: Didn't know BBCode was case sensitive. :P

Just installed acmonitor. This is great! :D Just what I've beem looking for. I came from a Windows Mobile pda, and thought the N800 needed something like this. Thanks for the info.
