after you are done, go to /etc/init.d and run ' ./mce restart ' and there you go, longer lighting time.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for - but now im stuck trying to figure out how to run an editor from xterm.

nervermind, I copied it to the mydocs directory, edited it with emelfm's editor and then copied it back in xterm and it worked PERFECTLYY!!!!!

NO MORE DARK KEYBOARD!!!!!!! YEY!!!!!


.. I wonder how this is gonna effect battery life.
